| Muybridge's Complete Human and Animal Locomotion: New Volume 1 (Reprint of original volumes 1-4)
[Click on the appropriate flag to buy the book] | Product Details Hardcover 629 pages Dover Pubns Published 1979 Book Description "Of all the great pioneer-innovators of the 19th century, perhaps the least known is Eadweard Muybridge." "Of all the great turning points in scientific, technological and artistic thought, undoubtedly the least known (because it has effectively, never been published) is Muybridge's eleven-volume pictorial treatise of human and animal life in motion." "100 years after completion, this rarest of all photographic series (only 37 sets still extant, most of them incomplete) is finally published complete and accessible to a wide public, in three volumes of 20,000 photographs. Twenty years of devotion and invention, patience and insight, plus $50,000 and 100,000 negatives, culminated in the quintessential study of the moving figure. Muybridge had created an encylopedic anatomy of motion, unique in its day and unsurpassed in ours." "The photographs consist of a series of movements shown in stop-motion sequence: 781 plates (each plate is a two-page spread) of nearly 300 separate actions split into as many as 50 individual shots per action. 532 of the plates show clothed and unclothed men, women and children engaging in a wide variety of typical actions and activities." |
