EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 24. Walking, With High-Heeled Shoes On" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. Taken between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print showcases Muybridge's groundbreaking work on animal locomotion. Part of his iconic series "Animal Locomotion" this particular image is from Volume III dedicated to women. The photograph features a curvaceous nude woman confidently striding forward in high-heeled shoes. Her voluptuous figure adds an element of sensuality to the composition. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography shines through as he meticulously captures each frame of movement, creating a stop-motion sequence that predates early motion pictures. This study of sequential movement not only revolutionized photography but also contributed significantly to the understanding of human locomotion. Now housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, USA, this print was generously gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Its presence within their collection further solidifies its status as an important piece in both artistic and scientific realms. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image captured over a century ago, we are reminded of Muybridge's pioneering spirit and his lasting impact on both art and science. It serves as a testament to the power of photography as a medium for exploration and discovery while celebrating the beauty found within our own movements.
