EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 676. Goat; Walking, 1885" is a remarkable piece of art captured by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases a goat in mid-stride as it gracefully walks across the frame. With its majestic horns and distinguished beard, the goat exudes an air of elegance and poise. The photograph belongs to Muybridge's groundbreaking series called "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887. This collection revolutionized the study of movement through sequential images, laying the foundation for early motion picture sequences and stop-motion animation techniques. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography is evident in this print, which freezes each moment of the goat's walking motion with incredible precision. The collotype printing technique used adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its visual impact. Currently housed at Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, USA, this artwork serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering contributions to both science and photography. It offers viewers a glimpse into his meticulous study of animal locomotion while showcasing his artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing photograph today, we are reminded not only of Muybridge's genius but also of our fascination with capturing fleeting moments frozen forever on paper.
