EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 62. Running at Full Speed" was taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge between 1872 and 1885. The image is a collotype print on paper, measuring 22.5x33.7 cm, and is currently housed in the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this particular plate captures the dynamic motion of a male figure sprinting with incredible speed. The sequence of frames showcases Muybridge's pioneering stop-motion technique, which laid the foundation for early motion pictures. With its scientific approach to photography, this image exemplifies Muybridge's dedication to studying movement and capturing it in sequential form. The subject's nudity adds an element of vulnerability and rawness to the composition while emphasizing his athleticism as he propels himself forward. Meticulously composed and executed, this photograph not only serves as a testament to Muybridge's technical skill but also highlights his contribution to both art and science during his time. It stands as a remarkable example of how photography can freeze moments that would otherwise be imperceptible to the human eye. Through its powerful depiction of speed, action, and physicality, "Plate 62. Running at Full Speed" invites viewers into an immersive experience where they can witness the beauty and grace inherent in athletic prowess captured through the lens of one visionary artist.
