EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 573. Hauling; Man Pulling at Head; Light-Gray Mare, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image is part of his groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" from 1887. In this particular frame, we witness a man exerting his strength as he pulls on the head of a light-gray mare. The horse stands tall and powerful, its muscles taut with effort. Muybridge's meticulous collotype technique beautifully renders every detail of the scene. The photograph not only showcases the beauty and grace of these magnificent creatures but also serves as an important scientific study on animal movement. Muybridge's pioneering work revolutionized our understanding of motion and laid the foundation for early motion picture sequences. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back to a time when horses played an integral role in daily life – whether it be hauling goods or working on farms. It reminds us of their immense strength and their crucial contribution to human progress. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, this print is a testament to Muybridge's artistic vision and technical mastery. It serves as both a historical document capturing an era long gone and an enduring symbol of mankind's relationship with animals. Gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust, this remarkable photograph continues to inspire awe and appreciation for Muybridge's
