EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Etienne-Jules Marey (1830-1904), the visionary French pioneer of the moving picture, is seen in deep concentration as he meticulously examines one of his chronophotography plates. Dating back to 1901, this image offers a rare glimpse into the world of a man who revolutionized the way we understand and document human and animal motion. Born in Dijon, France, in 1830, Marey's fascination with the natural world led him to study medicine and physics. However, it was his relentless curiosity and innovative spirit that drove him to develop chronophotography, a technique that enabled him to capture the sequential motion of living beings. By using a series of cameras arranged in a line, each with a slightly different exposure time, Marey was able to capture multiple images of a subject in motion on a single plate. This photograph captures Marey in his element, surrounded by the tools of his trade - a testament to his groundbreaking contributions to the field of motion studies. With a keen eye and unwavering dedication, he paved the way for the development of cinematography and the visual arts as we know them today. The date of this photograph, 1901, marks a pivotal moment in the history of moving images, as Marey's pioneering work laid the foundation for the future of film and animation. As we marvel at this image of Etienne-Jules Marey, we are reminded of the transformative power of curiosity and the indelible impact of one man's relentless pursuit of knowledge. This photograph is an invaluable piece of history, offering a unique window into the mind of a true visionary.
