EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the groundbreaking work of Mr Muybridge and his instantaneous photographs of animal motion at the Royal Society. The image captures a selection of six phases in the stroke of a bird's wing, specifically a Cockatoo, highlighting the independent action of its primary feathers. In addition to avian movement, this remarkable collection also includes various other subjects. One phase depicts the graceful movements of a dancing-girl, while another portrays an intense moment during galloping. A fast trotting horse is frozen in time in yet another phase, showcasing its powerful stride. The diversity continues with snapshots capturing everyday motions such as crawling and running; from a child playfully exploring their surroundings to a draught-horse confidently striding forward. Even more intriguingly, this series presents us with an extraordinary glimpse into leaping as seen simultaneously from three different viewpoints. Dated back to May 25th, 1989, this print holds historical significance and serves as a testament to Mr Muybridge's pioneering work in capturing animal motion through photography. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the beauty and complexity inherent in these fleeting moments frozen forever on film.
