EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 160. Jumping; Running Broad Jump (Shoes), 1872-85" captures a moment frozen in time by the talented photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The print showcases a sequence of frames depicting a man engaged in an athletic long jump, showcasing his impressive jumping skills. Part of Muybridge's renowned series "Animal Locomotion" this image is not only visually striking but also scientifically significant. It serves as a study on movement and motion, offering valuable insights into human locomotion during the late 19th century. The semi-naked male athlete is seen wearing unique footwear and a thong-like garment known as a pelvis cloth or loincloth. His powerful leap demonstrates both grace and strength, highlighting the beauty of athleticism captured through photography. Muybridge's pioneering stop-motion technique paved the way for early motion picture sequences, making him one of the precursors to modern cinema. This particular print measures approximately 19.1x40.6 cm and belongs to the collection of Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from over a century ago, we are reminded of the timeless appeal that sports hold for humanity – capturing moments like these that inspire awe and admiration for our physical capabilities.
