EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 667. Ass; Walking; Saddle; A Boy Riding, Zoo, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image showcases a fascinating early motion picture sequence that was part of Muybridge's groundbreaking work on animal locomotion. In this particular frame, we witness a young boy confidently riding an ass as they stroll through the zoo. The boy is dressed in typical attire for the era, wearing a hat and holding onto the reins with determination. The donkey gracefully walks forward under his guidance, creating an enchanting scene of movement and harmony between human and animal. Muybridge's collotype print beautifully captures every detail of this mesmerizing interaction. Through his scientific approach to photography, he sought to study and understand movement in its purest form. This image serves as both a testament to his pioneering techniques and an artistic masterpiece. Now housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. It stands as a reminder of Muybridge's significant contributions to photography and science while also showcasing the joyous connection between humans and animals that transcends time itself.
