Attitudes of Animals in Motion, 1879 - A Captivating Glimpse into the Pioneering World of Eadweard J Muybridge
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to the late 19th century and witness a groundbreaking moment in the history of photography and motion picture. This photo print, titled "Attitudes of Animals in Motion" was created by the visionary artist Eadweard J Muybridge in 1879 and printed two years later. In this black and white freeze frame, Muybridge explores the concept of capturing movement through a series of sequential images. The photograph showcases various animals, including majestic horses with their jockeys riding at full speed. Each animal's posture is frozen mid-motion, allowing us to observe their fluidity and grace like never before. Muybridge's innovative technique revolutionized not only photography but also animation and sports analysis. His pioneering work laid the foundation for future advancements in visual storytelling that we enjoy today. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art piece transports viewers back to an era where stop motion was still a novelty. It serves as a testament to Muybridge's skill as both a photographer and an entertainer who pushed boundaries with his artistic vision. As you gaze upon this remarkable print, let your imagination run wild as you envision these animals galloping across vast landscapes—a true testament to human curiosity and our endless quest for knowledge about the world around us.
