EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 240. Sitting and Flirting a Fan" captures a mesmerizing moment frozen in time by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. Taken in 1885 as part of his groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" this collotype print showcases Muybridge's mastery in capturing motion through sequential frames. In this particular image, we see a Victorian-era woman seated elegantly, her eyes fixed on something or someone beyond the frame. She holds a delicate fan in her hand, which she skillfully flirts with to create an air of mystery and allure. Her attire reflects the formal fashion of the era, with a beautifully draped robe that adds to her graceful presence. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography is evident here as he meticulously studies movement and captures it frame by frame. This early motion picture sequence predates cinema but serves as an important precursor to its development. The Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy proudly houses this remarkable piece within their collection, thanks to the generous gift from the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. As we gaze upon this timeless photograph today, we are transported back to an era where elegance and charm were conveyed not only through words but also through subtle gestures captured by Muybridge's lens.
