This 1906 photograph, *[Fencer]* by Georges Demeny, captures a moment of action with a unique visual effect. Demeny, a pioneer of chronophotography, used multiple exposures to show the movement of a fencer as a series of ghostly, overlapping images. The resulting effect creates a fascinating, almost abstract representation of motion, highlighting the dynamism of the sport while pushing the boundaries of photographic representation. *[Fencer]* exemplifies Demeny's innovative approach to photography, paving the way for future advancements in motion capture and animation.
