EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 29. Walking, Carrying Bucket of Water in Each Hand" is a remarkable piece of art captured by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge between 1872 and 1885. The image showcases a sequence of frames depicting a man walking while carrying buckets of water in each hand. Muybridge's work was groundbreaking for its time, as it pioneered early motion picture sequences and revolutionized the study of movement through scientific photography. This particular print is part of his iconic series called "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887. The stark contrast created by the collotype printing technique enhances the visual impact of this photograph, emphasizing both the subject's nude form and his physical exertion while performing this everyday task. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to witness each step taken during this act of carrying water. As we admire this image from the Addison Gallery of American Art collection at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, we are transported back to an era when photography was still in its infancy but already pushing boundaries. Muybridge's exploration into capturing sequential motion paved the way for future advancements in cinematography and animation. This print serves as a testament to Muybridge's artistic vision and technical expertise while offering us a glimpse into history - reminding us that even mundane actions can be transformed into extraordinary works of art through skilled observation and documentation.
