EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 740. Bactrian Camel; (Young), Galloping, 1885" captures the essence of motion and action in a single frame. Taken by renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in collotype on paper, this print measures 22.4x34 cm and is housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" from 1887, this image showcases a young Bactrian camel running with wild abandon. The double-humped creature gallops across the frame with an energy that seems to leap off the page. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement and sequential imagery. His stop-motion technique captured various frames within a sequence, allowing for detailed study and analysis of locomotion patterns. In this particular photograph, we witness the grace and power of these magnificent creatures as they navigate their environment. The two humps characteristic of Bactrian camels are prominently displayed as they propel themselves forward. The monochromatic palette adds a timeless quality to the image while emphasizing the dynamic nature of the subject matter. This striking visual serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable scientific document—a testament to Muybridge's pioneering work in photography. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back to a moment frozen in time—an exquisite glimpse into nature's marvels through Muybridge's lens
