EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 274. Base-ball; Batting, 1885" captures a moment frozen in time during the early days of motion picture sequences. Taken by Eadweard Muybridge, a renowned photographer and pioneer in scientific photography, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work on animal locomotion. The image portrays a male baseball player in action as he swings his bat with precision and determination. The sequential frames capture the fluid movement of the batter, offering an intriguing study of human motion. With each frame meticulously captured, Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of movement. Displayed at the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, this print is part of Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion" from 1887. It serves as a testament to both the artistic and scientific significance that photography holds. While nudity may be unexpected within a sports context today, it was common for Muybridge's studies to feature nude subjects for better visibility and accuracy when analyzing body movements. This choice adds an additional layer of vulnerability and rawness to the composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection without commercial intent or mention thereof let us appreciate its historical value as one man's pursuit to unravel the mysteries behind human motion through artistry and science combined.
