EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 681. Virginia Deer; (No Antlers) Buck Walking" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885. The image, printed using the collotype technique on paper, measures 17.6x45.6 cm and is housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this particular plate showcases a majestic buck gracefully strolling through its natural habitat. With no antlers adorning its head, the deer's elegant movement is accentuated as it takes each step with precision and grace. Muybridge's pioneering work revolutionized our understanding of motion and paved the way for early motion picture sequences. Through his scientific approach to photography, he captured sequential frames that allowed viewers to study movement in an unprecedented manner. In this particular print, we witness nature come alive as we observe every detail of the deer's walk meticulously documented by Muybridge's lens. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the animal's powerful presence. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from history, we are reminded of both artistry and science intertwining seamlessly—a testament to Muybridge's genius behind the camera lens. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's quest to unravel nature’s mysteries through visual storytelling and exploration.
