EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 400. Emptying Bucket of Water" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. Taken between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print showcases Muybridge's groundbreaking work in capturing motion through sequential frames. Part of his iconic series "Animal Locomotion" this particular image belongs to Volume II dedicated to males. The photograph features a nude male figure engaged in the action of emptying a bucket of water. The arc created as the water splashes out creates a mesmerizing visual effect that adds depth and dynamism to the composition. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement, making him an influential figure in both art and science realms. This image exemplifies his meticulous study of human locomotion, showcasing his ability to capture precise moments with remarkable clarity. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of their collection gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust.
