EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 592. Rocking (Pacing): Saddle; Brown Horse Pronto, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases the early motion picture sequence technique that Muybridge pioneered, providing a fascinating glimpse into the study of animal locomotion. In this particular frame from his groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" we see a majestic brown horse named Pronto rocking or pacing under saddle. The horse's powerful muscles ripple beneath its sleek coat as it moves with grace and strength. The rider atop the horse is captured mid-gallop, their hat flying in the wind as they skillfully guide their mount. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement and paved the way for advancements in various fields such as sports science and animation. This collotype print on paper beautifully preserves every detail of this mesmerizing scene. Displayed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this artwork is part of an extensive collection gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. It serves as a testament to Muybridge's immense contribution to both art and science. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are transported back to 1885 when horses were not only modes of transportation but also symbols of freedom and power. Through Muybridge's lens, we witness the beauty and elegance inherent in these magnificent creatures
