EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 720. Cat; Galloping, 1885" captures the essence of motion and action in a single frame. Taken by Eadweard Muybridge, a renowned photographer from the late 19th century, this collotype print showcases his groundbreaking work in capturing sequential images. Part of Muybridge's iconic series "Animal Locomotion" this particular image is featured in Volume X dedicated to domestic animals. The photo measures approximately 19.1x39.4 cm and is housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA. In this mesmerizing shot, we witness a feline creature mid-leap while galloping with incredible speed and grace. The stop-motion technique used by Muybridge allows us to appreciate every detail of the cat's movement as it defies gravity for an instant. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography revolutionized our understanding of motion and paved the way for early motion picture sequences. His meticulous study of animal locomotion not only contributed to scientific research but also elevated photography as an art form. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of the beauty found within nature's most ordinary moments. It serves as a testament to both Muybridge's technical mastery and his ability to capture fleeting instances that would otherwise go unnoticed. This stunning print from Bridgeman Images invites us into a world where time stands still long enough for us to appreciate the elegance and power
