EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 97. Turning to Ascend Stairs, With Pitcher & Goblet in Hands" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time. Taken by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge in 1885, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work on animal locomotion. The image depicts a woman elegantly turning to ascend a flight of stairs while gracefully holding a pitcher and goblet in her hands. Her flowing white gown adds an ethereal touch to the composition, contrasting beautifully against the dark background. Muybridge's pioneering technique of capturing motion through sequential frames is evident here as we witness each step of the woman's movement meticulously documented. This scientific approach revolutionized photography and laid the foundation for early motion picture sequences. With its meticulous attention to detail and artistic composition, this photograph serves as both a study of movement and an aesthetic masterpiece. The viewer is transported back in time to witness this enchanting scene unfold before their eyes. Now housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion". It remains an enduring testament to his genius and continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty.
