Title page with dedication by Muybridge to "Sir Fredk Leighton Baron P.R.A. with the homage of the author June 1889" and later dedication by Lord Leighton "To Linley Sambourne from an old friend. July 22, 1896" in pencil. Bound in half morocco, cloth-covered album (corners rubbed, some scratches) gilt morocco cover label "Animal Locomotion. By Eadweard Muybridge. 1872-1885. Plates. University of Pennsylvania". University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, 1887. Grolier, Truthful Lens, 123. Parr/Badger, The Photobook I, 52. This album features an important collection of Eadweard Muybridge’s groundbreaking “instantaneous photography,” a self-developed technique that enabled high-precision stop-motion images using an early rapid-acting shutter. Initially focusing on horses, Muybridge expanded his repertoire to include athletes, birds, lions, and camels, famously capturing the first image of a galloping horse with all four hooves off the ground in 1872. By 1885, he had amassed over 20,000 photographic negatives, comprising 781 sequential photo plates taken from multiple cameras positioned at carefully planned locations and angles, each illustrating a subject in continuous motion. Muybridge’s handwritten dedication on the title page to Frederic Leighton, one of Victorian England’s celebrated artists, underscores the influence of his movement studies on contemporary artists such as Thomas Eakins, Frederic Remington, Ernest Meissonier, Edgar Degas, and the French inventor Étienne-Jules Marey. Notably, Leighton passed away in 1896, the same year he gifted this particular copy to his “old friend,” the renowned Punch cartoonist Edward Linley Sambourne. The complete eleven-part work Animal Locomotion contains 781 numbered plates. The accompanying Author’s Edition, offered here, featured a removable subscription leaf that allowed subscribers to choose their preferred plates, resulting in varied content across different sets. This copy includes plates 3, 133, 152, 174, 187, 214, 279, 289, 347, 408, 465, 471, 565, 616, 626, 647, 659, 710, 721, 739, and 755.

Original brown cloth portfolio, gilt titles to front board. Imprint to lower margin. MUYBRIDGE'S 360-DEGREE PANORAMIC VIEW OF SAN FRANCISCO. Often referred to as the "Patrician's View" of San Francisco. Muybridge captured the stunning views of the city from the observation turret in the unfinished mansion of Central Pacific Railroad tycoon, Mark Hopkins. He along with the other extravagantly wealthy men behind the CPRR, Leland Stanford, Charles Crocker, and Collis Potter Huntington, had built mansions near one another on California Street Hill (later Nob Hill). New York Historical Society curator Wendy Ikemoto observes: “Hopkins and Crocker both had panoramic observation towers built into their mansions, and Stanford had panoramic windows built. So, the panorama is in some ways the vision of a commercial king—a vision of monopoly, power, and control. And yet, Muybridge presents the opposite: The city is empty and desolate, and everything seems still. There are all these strange little interruptions to the sense of omnipotence that you would normally associate with a panorama.” Howes M-926; Mitchell, Kerrie.

Eadweard Muybridge "Horse in Motion" Pin
Est: $200 - $400
Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904) was an English-born photographer who is renowned for his groundbreaking work in the field of photography and motion studies. He is best known for his pioneering experiments with motion photography, which had a profound impact on the understanding of human and animal movement.Key points about Eadweard Muybridge:1. **Early Life and Career**: Muybridge was born as Edward Muggeridge in Kingston upon Thames, England. He later adopted the name Eadweard Muybridge. He moved to the United States in the 1850s and became a successful landscape photographer.2. **Motion Photography**: Muybridge's most significant contribution to the world of photography was his work in motion studies. He conducted a series of experiments using multiple cameras to capture sequential photographs of human and animal movement. His experiments were commissioned by Leland Stanford, the former governor of California and a racehorse owner, who wanted to settle a debate about whether all four of a horse's hooves were off the ground simultaneously when it galloped.3. **Zoopraxiscope**: Muybridge's motion studies laid the foundation for the development of motion pictures. He created a device called the "zoopraxiscope," which projected his sequential photographs in rapid succession, creating the illusion of movement. This was an early precursor to the modern film projector.4. **Animal Locomotion**: Muybridge's extensive photographic studies of motion were published in a book titled "Animal Locomotion" (1887). This book contained thousands of photographs of various subjects, including humans, animals, and birds, captured in motion.5. **Scientific Impact**: Muybridge's work had a significant impact on the fields of science, art, and anatomy. His photographic studies of motion provided valuable information on animal and human locomotion, which was used in fields such as biology and biomechanics.6. **Artistic Collaboration**: Muybridge's work influenced artists like Eadweard's work influenced many artists, including the French Impressionist Edgar Degas, who incorporated elements of motion and photography into their work.7. **Legacy**: Eadweard Muybridge's contributions to the early development of motion pictures and his pioneering work in capturing motion in photography laid the foundation for the future of cinema and animation. His experiments and studies are considered a crucial step in the history of visual media.Muybridge's work in motion photography and his efforts to capture the nuances of movement had a profound and lasting impact on the fields of photography and film. His contributions continue to be celebrated for their influence on the development of motion pictures and our understanding of motion in the natural world. Measures 1.5 x 1. Enamel.

Image: 24.5x30.3 cm (9¾x12"); sheet: 48.5x61 cm (19x24").Collotype from Muybridge's famous series of stop-action sequential photography, capturing the movements of men, women, children, horses, birds, lions, etc. Plate 507 shows a man working with an axe.Edweard Muybridge, 1830-1904, began his long career in photography in California, creating famous views of Yosemite and other scenic wonders. In 1872, Leland Stanford (one of the original "Big Four" and the president of the Central Pacific Railroad) commissioned Muybridge to employ his photographic expertise to help Stanford win a bet: establish that when galloping, a horse had all four legs off the ground at one time. Muybridge devised his sequential stop-action photography using a series of cameras the shutters of which were triggered by trip-wires as the horse ran by. Stanford won the bet, and Muybridge developed a new outlet for his photographic genius. Some twelve years later, under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania, Muybridge began his major work in the field, his "Animal Locomotion," consisting in its entirety 781 plates reproducing some 20,000 negatives.

EADWEARD MUYBRIDGE (1830-1904) Pi-Wi-Ack, Valley of the Yosemite, Shower of Stars, Vernal Fall, 400 feet tall. Mammoth albumen print, the image measuring 16⅝x21⅛ inches (42.2x53.7 cm.), flush mounted, with the partial title and notation "No. 28" in ink on mount verso. 1872 Provenance: From the Collection of Dr. James and Debra Pearl Muybridge first photographed in the Yosemite Valley in 1867, when he produced over 250 views in whole-plate and stereoscopic formats. Before embarking on a second expedition in the summer of 1872, he advertised for subscribers to contribute towards the cost of the new series. Subscribers, one of whom was the eminent landscape artist A. Bierstadt, could choose forty images from the series for 100 dollars. Muybridge produced over 500 negatives between June and November 1872 in various formats. The list, produced in April 1873 by his new publishers, Bradley & Rulofson, announced fifty views 17x21 inches from his mammoth 20x24 inch negatives. These impressive views immediately attracted national and international acclaim and Muybridge was awarded the Vilenna Medal in 1874. Despite this attention it seems that far fewer prints survived than those of his competitor Carleton E. Watkins. During the 1870s the photographers Henry W. Bradley (1813-1891) and William H. Rulofson (1826-1878), who together operated a San Francisco photography studio, published a series of Eadweard Muybridge's views of Yosemite. Their inventory number for this image was 28.
