EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 407. Two Models, 8 Pouring Bucket of Water Over 1" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. Taken between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print showcases two female models engaged in a playful act of pouring water over each other. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this image is from Volume IV dedicated to women. It offers a unique glimpse into early motion picture sequences and scientific studies on movement. The sequential frames depict the fluidity of action as the water splashes against their bodies, evoking laughter and joy. The nudity portrayed here is tastefully done, emphasizing the natural beauty and vulnerability of these women during their bath or toilette ritual. Their carefree expressions highlight the playfulness inherent in such moments. Measuring at approximately 25.4x28.1 cm, this collotype print can be found at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Phillips Academy, Andover, MA, USA. It was generously gifted to the gallery by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Muybridge's mastery shines through his ability to capture both scientific precision and artistic expression within a single frame. This photograph serves as an important historical artifact that continues to fascinate viewers with its timeless charm and exploration of human movement.
