EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 736. Egyptian Camel; Racking, 1885" captures a mesmerizing moment in animal locomotion. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work in early motion picture sequences. The image features a majestic dromedary camel with its characteristic humped back, gracefully walking across the frame. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography is evident as he meticulously captures each frame of the camel's movement, creating a sequential study of its gait. Through this photograph, we are transported back to the late 19th century when Muybridge revolutionized our understanding of motion and captured it for posterity. The stillness of each frame juxtaposed against the fluidity of the camel's walk creates a sense of awe and wonder. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion". It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable scientific document that continues to inspire photographers and researchers alike. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are reminded not only of Muybridge's pioneering spirit but also how art can capture fleeting moments in time while expanding our knowledge about the world around us.
