EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 196. Dancing Waltz, Two Models" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work in early motion picture sequences. Part of Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion" this particular image is featured in Volume III dedicated to women. It offers a scientific study of movement through sequential frames, revealing the intricate beauty of dance. In this frame, two female dancers elegantly waltz together with grace and precision. The absence of clothing adds an artistic element to the composition as it highlights the natural form and fluidity of their bodies. The nudity is tastefully captured, emphasizing the vulnerability and freedom expressed through dance. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is a testament to Muybridge's pioneering contribution to photography as both an art form and a scientific tool. Donated by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust, it continues to inspire viewers with its timeless elegance and technical brilliance. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness these dancers' enchanting performance forever immortalized on paper.
