EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 651. A, Bell ringing; B, Teeter Board; C, Military Drill" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885 as part of his groundbreaking work on animal locomotion, this collotype print showcases the beauty and grace of horses in motion. In this image, we see a sequence of frames depicting three distinct actions. Plate A shows horses lined up in perfect order, their heads held high as they await the command to ring bells. The precision and discipline displayed by these majestic creatures is truly awe-inspiring. Moving on to Plate B, we witness an intriguing scene featuring ponies skillfully balancing on a teeter board. Their delicate movements demonstrate both strength and agility while showcasing their natural ability to adapt to various challenges. Lastly, Plate C captures a military drill where horses are engaged in synchronized movement. This powerful display highlights not only the bond between horse and rider but also their unwavering dedication to training and teamwork. Muybridge's pioneering approach to capturing motion through sequential photography revolutionized our understanding of movement and paved the way for early motion picture sequences. His scientific study of animals' locomotion remains influential even today. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. , this remarkable print offers viewers an extraordinary glimpse into the world of equine athleticism captured with meticulous detail by one of history's most celebrated photographers.
