EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing Plate 657 from Eadweard Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion". Titled "Rolling a Box; Pony, Lotta" this collotype print showcases the remarkable movement of a horse named Lotta as she effortlessly rolls a box with her snout. Muybridge, renowned for his pioneering work in early motion picture sequences, meticulously documented various animals' movements through sequential frames. This scientific study aimed to understand the intricacies of locomotion and revolutionized our understanding of animal anatomy and biomechanics. In this particular image, we witness the gracefulness of Lotta as she walks alongside the box before engaging in an impressive trick. The equine's strength is evident as she effortlessly maneuvers the crate using only her nose—a testament to both her intelligence and training. With its precise composition and attention to detail, Muybridge's photograph offers viewers a glimpse into the world of horses while simultaneously highlighting their beauty and power. It serves as an invaluable resource for scientists studying animal behavior or anyone captivated by these majestic creatures. This stunning print can be found at Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts. Gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust, it continues to inspire awe and admiration for Muybridge's groundbreaking contributions to photography and science alike.
