EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Animal Locomotion" (plate 646), captured in 1887 by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge, we are transported back in time to witness a mesmerizing sequence featuring a half-naked jockey skillfully leaping onto horseback. The image showcases the incredible synergy between man and animal, as the jockey's athletic prowess is beautifully juxtaposed against the raw power and grace of the horse. The frozen moment captures their harmonious connection, highlighting both their physical strength and mutual trust. Muybridge's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate every nuance of this dynamic scene. The composition draws our eyes towards the central figures - the jockey suspended mid-air, his body taut with anticipation, while beneath him, the majestic horse springs forward with an elegant stride. This photograph not only celebrates equestrian sport but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination. It reminds us of our ability to conquer new heights through dedication and perseverance. Beyond its artistic merits, this image offers glimpses into historical context. It reflects an era when horsemanship was revered as both a vocation and a form of entertainment. Furthermore, it provides insight into Victorian attitudes towards nudity and physicality within art. As we admire this remarkable piece from Alinari's collection, let us be reminded of Muybridge's pioneering contributions to photography and his groundbreaking work in capturing motion through sequential images. This particular print stands as a testament to his mastery behind the lens – freezing moments that would otherwise pass unnoticed – forever immortalizing them for generations to come.
