EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 617. Canter; Bareback; Rider, 106, Nude; White Horse Clinton" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image is part of his groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" from 1887, which revolutionized the study of movement through sequential photography. In this particular frame, we witness a daring equestrian adventure as a nude male rider gracefully maneuvers atop a magnificent white horse named Clinton. The raw beauty of their connection is evident as they engage in an exhilarating canter across an open field. Muybridge's scientific approach to capturing motion allows us to appreciate every detail of this dynamic scene. Through stop-motion frames meticulously arranged together, he provides us with an intimate glimpse into the artistry and athleticism involved in horse riding. The composition not only showcases the skillful rider but also highlights the power and elegance of these majestic animals. Their synchronized movements create a harmonious dance between man and beast that transcends mere sport or recreation. Displayed at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this collotype print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable scientific document. It reminds us of our deep connection with nature while celebrating human achievement in understanding animal locomotion. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured over a century ago, we are transported to another era where science meets artistry and where horses become symbols of grace
