EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 334. Boxing; With Gloves (Shoes), 1872-85" captures a moment frozen in time from Eadweard Muybridge's iconic series, Animal Locomotion. Measuring at 29.4x25.7 cm, this collotype print showcases the early motion picture sequence that revolutionized the study of movement. In this particular frame, two men engage in a fierce boxing match while wearing gloves and shoes. The intensity of their spar is palpable as they confront each other with determination etched on their faces. Their semi-naked bodies are adorned with pelvis cloths, adding an element of rawness to the scene. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography shines through in this image as he meticulously captures every detail of the fighters' movements. Each punch thrown and dodge executed is documented within these frames, providing invaluable insight into the art of pugilism. The clash between these two boxers symbolizes more than just physical combat; it represents the human desire for competition and triumph over adversity. This photograph encapsulates not only a sport but also embodies themes such as conflict, confrontation, and battle. Displayed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering work in stop-motion photography and its impact on both artistic expression and scientific study.
