Plate Number 103. Turning and ascending stairs with a pitcher and goblet in hands

Eadweard Muybridge

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a series of framed shots capturing a person in motion climbing and interacting with steps. The individual is naked and shown from different angles as they ascend. Their face is not distinctly visible due to the framing and size, but they appear to have short hair. The person is holding an object against their chest as they move. The background is consistent and textured, possibly indicating a studio setting. The focus is on the person's movements on the steps.
