EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the groundbreaking invention of perforated film in 1888 by George Eastman, a visionary from Rochester, New York. The image transports us back to the late 19th century, a time when technology was rapidly advancing and paving the way for modern photography. The sequence captured in this photograph was skillfully taken by William Kennedy Laurie Dickson at Thomas Edison's Laboratory in Orange, New Jersey between 1889 and 1890. It offers a glimpse into the early stages of film development and experimentation during that era. A mesmerizing dancer gracefully moves across each frame of this film strip, symbolizing both the beauty and innovation brought forth by these pioneering minds. This remarkable invention revolutionized photography as it allowed for continuous shooting without interruptions or breaks. As we admire this historic artifact from America's past, we are reminded of how far technology has come since then. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress.
