EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 422. Toilet; Putting on Shoes and Rising from Chair, 1885" captures a moment of graceful movement frozen in time. Taken by renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work in capturing motion through sequential frames. The image depicts a Victorian-era woman dressed in an elegant white gown as she goes about her morning routine. Seated on a chair, she is seen putting on her shoes before gracefully rising to stand. The composition beautifully captures the fluidity of her movements, showcasing Muybridge's scientific approach to photography. Muybridge's series "Animal Locomotion" was published in 1887 and became a milestone in the history of early motion pictures. His meticulous studies of human and animal movement laid the foundation for modern cinematography and animation techniques. This particular photograph offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to witness everyday actions that were once taken for granted but now preserved forever. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an important scientific document. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of their collection thanks to the generous gift from the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today as it did over a century ago when it was first captured by Muybridge's lens.
