EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph captured by Eadweard Muybridge in the late 19th century. This collotype print, measuring 17.2x44 cm, belongs to the collection of Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. The image is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887. Volume III specifically focuses on women's movements, featuring this particular frame showcasing a nude female figure ascending stairs with an air of curiosity and elegance. Muybridge's work revolutionized scientific photography and laid the foundation for early motion picture sequences. Through his stop-motion technique, he meticulously studied movement and captured it frame by frame to create a sequential narrative. In this mesmerizing shot, we witness the woman gracefully climbing upwards while glancing around her surroundings. Her handkerchief waves gently in her hand as if bidding farewell or beckoning someone towards her ascent. This photograph not only showcases Muybridge's technical mastery but also highlights the beauty and grace inherent in human locomotion. The juxtaposition of nudity against architectural elements adds an intriguing artistic dimension to the composition. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in photographic history when science merged seamlessly with artistry, forever changing our understanding of movement and visual storytelling.
