EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 611. Trotting; Sulky; Gray Mare, Katydid, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases a mesmerizing early motion picture sequence that depicts the graceful movement of a trotting gray mare pulling a sulky cart. Muybridge's groundbreaking work on animal locomotion revolutionized the field of scientific photography. In this particular print from his iconic series "Animal Locomotion" he meticulously captured multiple frames to study and analyze the sequential movements of horses. The composition beautifully portrays an equestrian scene with a man seated in the sulky cart, skillfully guiding the horse through its rhythmic trot. The two-wheeled vehicle adds an element of historical charm to this timeless image. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to 1885 when horses were not only essential for transportation but also played vital roles in agriculture and daily life. This photograph serves as both a testament to our deep connection with animals and an invaluable record of our past. Now housed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this collotype print is part of Edwin J. Beinecke Trust's generous gift collection. Its presence within these esteemed walls ensures that Muybridge's pioneering work continues to inspire generations with its scientific significance and artistic beauty.
