Eadweard Muybridge

National Gallery of Art

This is a photograph of a horse in motion sequence. The image consists of a series of nine individual frames arranged in a 3x3 grid, each capturing a moment in the movement of a horse. The background is plain. Each frame shows the horse in a slightly different position. The black and white treatment appears vintage.
