The Canter - One Stride Photographer Synchronously from Two Points of View, 1887
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures the essence of movement in a way that was groundbreaking for its time. Taken by Eadweard Muybridge in 1887, this image is a part of his iconic series "Animals in Motion" which revolutionized the field of photography. In this particular print, we witness the power and grace of a racehorse mid-canter. Muybridge's pioneering technique allows us to see every intricate detail of the horse's stride as it gallops forward. The sequential frames freeze each moment with precision, giving us an unprecedented glimpse into the world of equestrian sports. The composition is strikingly unique as it presents two points of view simultaneously. From one perspective, we observe the horse's profile as it stretches its legs forward with remarkable strength. Simultaneously, from another angle, we are granted a frontal view that showcases both the jockey atop and the determination etched on their faces. Muybridge's meticulous grid-like arrangement further enhances our understanding of motion and sequence. It highlights how even within a single stride, there are countless micro-movements occurring harmoniously together. This photograph not only celebrates equine athleticism but also serves as an invaluable tool for studying animal locomotion. Its inclusion in "Animals in Motion" solidifies Muybridge's status as a visionary photographer who forever changed our perception of capturing movement through still imagery. (Note
