EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 774. Adjutant; Walking, 1885" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases an adjutant bird gracefully striding across the frame with its long legs elegantly extended. Taken as part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" in 1887, this collotype print on paper offers a unique glimpse into early motion picture sequences. Each frame meticulously captures the fluidity and beauty of movement, providing invaluable scientific insight into animal locomotion. The adjutant bird, also known as a stork or wading bird, is depicted here in all its glory - every feather and sinew perfectly preserved for eternity. Its slender silhouette against the stark background evokes a sense of tranquility and grace. Housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering work in photography and his dedication to capturing nature's wonders through scientific study. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are reminded of the power that photography holds - not only to document but also to inspire awe and curiosity about our natural world.
