Plate Number 504. Ascending and Descending Stairs, 1887
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph captured by Eadweard Muybridge, an influential figure in the field of early photography. This collotype print measures 46.8x59.1 cm and belongs to the Corcoran Collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , USA. The image is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series titled "Animal Locomotion: An Electro-photographic Investigation of Consecutive Phases of Animal Movements" which was published in 1887 as a comprehensive study on motion and movement. In this particular plate, we witness a female figure gracefully navigating a flight of stairs. Muybridge's meticulous attention to detail allows us to observe each phase of her ascent and descent with remarkable clarity. The photograph captures not only the physical action but also conveys a sense of directionality as she carries herself through space. This extraordinary visual documentation showcases Muybridge's pioneering use of photography as a scientific tool for studying human locomotion. It serves as a testament to his innovative approach that revolutionized our understanding of movement during his time. As we gaze upon this timeless piece, we are transported back to the late nineteenth century when Muybridge's work challenged conventional notions about capturing motion through artistry and technology alike.
