Animals in motion an electro-photographic investigation of consectutive phases of animal progressive movements

"More than 4000 high-speed shots of 34 different animals and birds, in 123 different types of action: horses, elephants, mastiffs, camels, guanacos, sloths, cats, raccoons, baboons, jaguars, kangaroos, asses, gnus, gazelles, pigs, elands, oxen, setters, mules, lions, deer, goats, whippets, elk, pigeons, adjutants, oryx, vultures, cockatoos, hawks, ostriches, tigers, capybaras, eagles. Animals are shown walking, running, leaping, flying--in typical actions. The horse alone is shown in more than 40 different ways: galloping with nude rider, trotting, pacing with sulky, cantering, jumping hurdles, carrying, rolling on barrels, and 36 other actions. [Many] photos taken against ruled backgrounds; most actions taken from 3 angles at once: 90°, 60°, rear. Foreshortened views are included."--Jacket.

  • "With a view to supplying the demand of art and of science students, it was decided to select a number of the most important plates which were in the work published in 1887 with the title: Animal locomotion (which contained 20,000 figures) and republish them on a reduced scale. The selected plates in this volume demonstrate certain facts which occur in regular sequence, with uniform intervals of time during the accomplishment of some act of motion thus enabling the phases which characterise the transition from one period of movement to another period to be leisurely studied."
