Eadweard Muybridge's "Plate Number 84. Ascending an incline with a bucket of water in right hand" (1887) is a photographic study of human motion. This plate is part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion," which documented the movement of animals and people in a scientific manner. The image captures a woman ascending a set of stairs in a series of 12 frames, highlighting the subtle changes in her posture and the flow of her movement. Muybridge's work revolutionized the understanding of motion, influencing fields such as animation and film.
