EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 728. Lioness; Walking; Lion; Lying Down" was taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885. The image is a collotype print on paper, measuring 19.2x35.9 cm, and is currently housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this particular plate showcases the graceful movement of a lioness as she walks alongside a majestic lion who lies comfortably nearby. The photo captures a fleeting moment frozen in time, offering us an intimate glimpse into the world of these wild animals. Muybridge's work revolutionized scientific photography and laid the foundation for early motion picture sequences. Through his meticulous stop-motion technique, he captured multiple frames to study animal locomotion with unprecedented precision. In this mesmerizing composition, we witness the sequential movement of these big cats as they pace side by side. Their powerful strides exude both strength and elegance while embodying their natural instinct to roam freely. As we delve into this extraordinary photograph from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its significant contribution to scientific exploration through photography.
