EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 621. Canter; Saddle; Thoroughbred Bay Mare Annie 6,1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases a stunning thoroughbred bay mare named Annie 6, gracefully cantering with a rider on her back. The print measures approximately 18.4x41 cm and is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" from 1887. This volume specifically focuses on horses, providing an invaluable scientific study of their movement through sequential frames. In this particular frame, we see a man confidently mounted on Annie 6 as they engage in the rhythmic motion of cantering. The rider wears a hat that adds to the timeless charm of the scene. Muybridge's collotype technique beautifully captures every detail of this equestrian moment: from the horse's powerful muscles in action to the subtle movements of its mane and tail. It serves as an early example of motion picture sequences before film became widely accessible. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of Edwin J. Beinecke Trust's generous gift to enrich our understanding and appreciation for both artistry and science within photography. Whether you are an equestrian enthusiast or simply captivated by early photographic techniques capturing movement and grace, this remarkable piece offers a glimpse into history while celebrating the
