EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 464. Two Models, 16 Chasing 4 with a Broom, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases two women dressed in elegant Victorian attire engaged in an animated chase. The composition is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series called "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887. This particular plate belongs to Volume VII, which focuses on various subjects including both males and females draped in clothing. It was generously gifted to the Addison Gallery of American Art by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Muybridge's collotype print beautifully illustrates early motion picture sequences through stop-motion photography techniques. The frames depict the dynamic movement as one woman playfully pursues another with a broom while they both burst into laughter. This scientific study of sequential motion not only demonstrates Muybridge's mastery of capturing action but also provides valuable insights into human locomotion during that era. The photograph invites viewers to delve into the past and marvel at how technology has evolved over time. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this mesmerizing print serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering contributions to photography and his enduring legacy within the art world.
