EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 144. Descending Stairs; Turning Basin in Hands" captures a moment frozen in time by the pioneering photographer Eadweard Muybridge. Taken between 1872-85, this collotype print showcases Muybridge's groundbreaking work on animal locomotion. Part of his renowned series "Animal Locomotion" this particular image is featured in Volume III dedicated to women. The photograph depicts a sequential motion sequence of a female figure gracefully descending a flight of stairs while carrying a turning basin in her hands. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized the study of movement and became an early precursor to motion pictures. Each frame meticulously captured the fluidity and gracefulness of human motion, offering valuable insights into biomechanics. The nude female subject adds an element of vulnerability and rawness to the composition, emphasizing the natural beauty and strength inherent in human form. Her nakedness symbolizes liberation from societal constraints, allowing viewers to appreciate both her physicality and artistic expression. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to Muybridge's innovative spirit and enduring legacy within the world of photography.
