EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 779. Storks; Swans, etc. 1885" captures a mesmerizing moment of animal locomotion frozen in time. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work on motion studies. The image features a sequence of frames depicting various birds in action - storks, swans, and ducks gracefully swimming in a serene pond or pool of water. The stillness of the photograph contrasts with the dynamic movement captured within each frame, providing viewers with a unique insight into the intricate motions of these aquatic creatures. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement and paved the way for early motion picture sequences. His meticulous study allowed him to capture split-second moments that were previously invisible to the naked eye. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion" we are reminded of both its artistic beauty and its significant contribution to scientific research. It serves as a testament to humanity's endless curiosity about nature and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this particular print was generously gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Its presence here allows us to appreciate Muybridge's pioneering work while immersing ourselves in an enchanting world where animals come alive through sequential photography.
