Muybridge motion study, 1870s C016 / 4562
Muybridge motion study. Series of early photographs showing the motion of an athlete carrying out a walking leap over a hurdle. The consecutive images are numbered in order from 1 to 9 (upper left to lower right). These photographs were obtained by English photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge (1830-1904) in his pioneering work of 1878 and 1879, documenting the motion of animals. This work was carried out in Paulo Alto, California, USA. His most famous study was of a galloping horse, but he also studied the motions of humans. This photograph is from Muybridges book The Attitudes of Animals in Motion (1881)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a groundbreaking motion study conducted by English photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge in the 1870s. The series of early photographs showcases the fluid motion of an athlete executing a walking leap over a hurdle. Numbered from 1 to 9, these consecutive images provide a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate movements involved in this athletic feat. Muybridge's pioneering work in documenting animal and human motion revolutionized the field of biomechanics and physiology. His most renowned study focused on capturing the galloping horse, but he also delved into studying human motions with equal precision. Taken at Paulo Alto, California, USA, this photograph is sourced from Muybridge's influential book titled "The Attitudes of Animals in Motion" published in 1881. It exemplifies his dedication to scientific research through high-speed photography techniques. With its historical significance rooted in the late 19th century, this image serves as a testament to Muybridge's role as both an innovator and pioneer within the realms of photography and biological studies. Through his meticulous experiments and photographic documentation, he shed light on anatomical details that were previously unknown or misunderstood. As we gaze upon this monochrome image today, we are transported back to an era where science merged seamlessly with artistry to unravel nature's secrets one frame at a time.
