EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Plate 567. Hauling; Dark-Gray Belgian Horse Billy, 1885" by Eadweard Muybridge showcases the power and grace of a magnificent dark-gray Belgian horse named Billy. The image is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series called "Animal Locomotion" which was published in 1887. In this particular print, we witness the sheer strength of Billy as he pulls a heavy load with determination and precision. The collotype technique used to create this image adds depth and texture, enhancing the details of every muscle in the horse's body. Muybridge's work revolutionized photography by capturing motion through sequential frames, laying the foundation for early motion picture sequences. His scientific approach to photography allowed him to study movement in animals like never before, making significant contributions to both art and science. The photograph not only captures the beauty of this majestic creature but also serves as a testament to its vital role in hauling tasks on farms during that era. With his harness, bridle, reins, and tack perfectly fitted, Billy exemplifies the epitome of an equine worker. Displayed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. , this print is a gift from the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. It continues to inspire viewers with its timeless depiction of animal locomotion while showcasing Muybridge's mastery behind the camera lens.
