EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 679. Goat; Galloping, 1885" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases the sheer power and grace of a galloping goat, its muscular body suspended mid-air as it propels forward with incredible speed. Taken from Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887, this collotype print is part of Volume X dedicated to domestic animals. Muybridge's pioneering work revolutionized our understanding of motion through sequential photography, laying the foundation for early motion picture sequences and stop-motion animation. In this particular frame, we witness the goat's intense movement captured in exquisite detail. Its hooves barely touch the ground as it races forward, its majestic horns proudly displayed on either side of its head. The intricate textures of its fur are beautifully rendered in black and white tones. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography allowed him to study animal locomotion with unparalleled precision. His images became an invaluable resource for artists, scientists, and researchers alike who sought to understand movement more deeply. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. , this print serves as a testament to Muybridge's enduring legacy as one of photography's great pioneers. It invites us into a world where time stands still yet reveals profound insights into nature’s most dynamic moments.
