Plate Number 30. Walking and carrying a bucket of water in each hand 1887

"Plate Number 30. Walking and carrying a bucket of water in each hand" is a photographic study by Eadweard Muybridge, created in 1887. This photo, part of a larger series, captures the sequential phases of human motion, in this instance, walking while carrying buckets. Muybridge, a pioneer of photographic technology, used multiple cameras to capture the movement and revolutionized our understanding of locomotion. This image is considered a seminal work in the history of photography and animation.
