EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 41. Walking, Flirting a Fan" captures the essence of motion and action in a mesmerizing early motion picture sequence. Taken by renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge between 1872-85, this collotype print on paper measures 20.6x35.2 cm. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887, this particular plate belongs to Volume VI dedicated to Females (Semi Nude) & Children. It is housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Phillips Academy, Andover, MA, USA. The image showcases a woman elegantly walking while simultaneously flirting with her fan. Her flowing dress adds gracefulness to her stride as she strolls along with confidence and allure. The sequential frames freeze each moment meticulously, allowing for scientific study and analysis of movement. Muybridge's work revolutionized photography and laid the foundation for early motion pictures through his stop-motion technique capturing multiple frames per second. This photograph exemplifies his dedication to capturing human locomotion scientifically while also highlighting its artistic beauty. Gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust to the Addison Gallery of American Art, this print serves as a testament to Muybridge's pioneering contribution to both photography and science during his lifetime (1830-1904).
