Plate Number 220. Stooping, and lifting handkerchief and turning

Eadweard Muybridge

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sequence of photographs displaying a nude individual in motion. The top row shows the person crouching down and standing up, while the bottom row captures similar movements from different angles. The individual has short hair tied closely to the head and is holding a small cloth or towel in some frames. The background consists of a tiled wall with horizontal lines, and the ground appears flat, resembling a paved or sports court.
