Plate Number 64. Running at full speed 1887

Eadweard Muybridge's "Plate Number 64. Running at full speed" (1887) is a seminal work in the development of photographic motion studies. The series of 18 photographs captures a man running in full stride, revealing the intricate mechanics of human movement. The sequential nature of the images creates a sense of motion, foreshadowing the advent of cinema. Muybridge's groundbreaking work revolutionized our understanding of locomotion, and his photographic studies were instrumental in the development of both art and science.
