EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 675. Sow; Trotting, 1885" is a remarkable piece of art captured by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases an intriguing motion sequence of a sow trotting, frozen in time through the collotype printing technique. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking project "Animal Locomotion" from 1887, this print offers a glimpse into his pioneering work on capturing movement through sequential frames. With scientific precision and artistic finesse, Muybridge revolutionized early motion picture sequences and paved the way for modern cinematography. The photograph captures the essence of animal locomotion with its meticulous study of movement. The sow's side profile is beautifully portrayed as it gracefully trots forward, showcasing both power and elegance in its stride. Through this still image, we witness the dynamic energy that exists within even seemingly mundane actions. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Phillips Academy, Andover, MA, USA. , this print serves as a testament to Muybridge's lasting impact on photography and science alike. It was generously gifted to the gallery by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. As we observe this mesmerizing snapshot from history, we are reminded not only of our fascination with animals but also our unending quest to understand their behavior through scientific exploration and artistic expression.
