EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 776. Storks; Swans, etc, A, B, C" captures a mesmerizing moment in animal locomotion. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885 as part of his groundbreaking work on motion studies, this collotype print showcases the graceful movements of various birds. The image depicts a sequence of frames showcasing storks, swans, and ducks engaged in their natural habitat - a serene pond or pool of water. The stillness captured within each frame contrasts with the dynamic nature of these creatures' actions: swimming through the water with elegance and precision. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement and paved the way for early motion picture sequences. His meticulous study enabled him to capture split-second moments that were previously invisible to the naked eye. As we observe this remarkable photograph today, we are transported back in time to witness these wild animals and birds frozen in action. The composition not only highlights their physical beauty but also serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering contributions to both art and science. Now housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. , this print is an invaluable piece from Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion". It continues to inspire awe and admiration for its ability to capture fleeting moments that would otherwise be lost forever.
