EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 379. Carpenter, Planing a Board" captures a moment frozen in time from the late 19th century. Taken by renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge as part of his groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this collotype print showcases the early stages of motion picture sequences. In this particular frame, we witness a skilled carpenter engrossed in his craft. With intense focus and precision, he expertly planes a wooden board, creating delicate shavings that float gracefully through the air. The image highlights not only the artistry of woodworking but also the beauty found within everyday actions. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography is evident in this composition. By capturing sequential frames of movement, he aimed to study and understand human locomotion more comprehensively. This image serves as an invaluable historical document that sheds light on both craftsmanship and scientific exploration during that era. The male subject's semi-nakedness adds an intriguing layer to the photograph - clad only in a pelvis cloth or loincloth typically worn for practicality rather than modesty during physical labor. It reflects the rawness and vulnerability often associated with manual work while emphasizing the connection between man and nature. Displayed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print represents Muybridge's significant contribution to both artistic expression and scientific inquiry through photography.
