EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 231. Stooping to Arrange Train and Turning, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time from Eadweard Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion". The collotype print showcases the meticulous study of movement through sequential frames, providing valuable insights into early motion picture sequences. In this particular image, we see a woman elegantly dressed in a long white gown walking with purpose. Her formal Victorian attire billows behind her as she stoops down to arrange her train before gracefully turning her body. The photograph not only highlights the fashion trends of the era but also emphasizes the fluidity and gracefulness of human locomotion. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of motion and paved the way for future advancements in cinematography. Each frame meticulously captured by his camera lens reveals intricate details that would have otherwise gone unnoticed by the naked eye. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Muybridge's collection at Addison Gallery of American Art, Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, we are transported back to an era where science met artistry. This collotype on paper serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering work and reminds us of how far we have come in capturing movement on film.
