1878 Alto Area Back Ground California Camera Cameras Corners Muybridge Palo Shed Stands Stock Track
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a glimpse into the revolutionary world of Edward Muybridge, an pioneering figure in the history of photography. Taken in 1878, the image depicts Muybridge's open-air studio at the Palo Alto Stock Farm in California. The studio, nestled amidst the picturesque landscape, is a testament to the artist's relentless pursuit of innovation in the field of motion photography. The studio is situated on the left side of the image, with a distinctive backdrop wall providing a contrast to the natural surroundings. The camera shed, a simple yet essential structure, stands proudly to the right. Four cameras, each mounted on stands, are strategically placed at the corners of the track area. These cameras, equipped with trip wires, were used to capture multiple images of an object or subject in motion, thereby enabling the creation of motion studies or "animated photographs." Muybridge's work at the Palo Alto Stock Farm marked a significant milestone in the evolution of photography. His groundbreaking research on animal locomotion not only revolutionized the art world but also had far-reaching implications for various fields such as science, sports, and animation. This photograph, therefore, not only serves as a window into Muybridge's creative process but also as a reminder of the transformative power of curiosity and innovation. The image, by Rights Managed from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a rare and valuable documentation of a pivotal moment in the history of photography and art.
