Eadweard MuybridgeAnimal Locomotion: Plate 682 (Stag Running), 1887

Collotype printing has become increasingly rare, but in the late 19th century it was employed for its effectiveness in reproducing the subtle delicacy of drawings and photographs. A photographic negative is projected onto a printing plate coated with light-sensitive gelatin that hardens and becomes receptive to the application of ink. Paper is laid on top and the image is printed on a press.

Eadweard Muybridge: Animal Locomotion Plate 682. For this picture, we recommend book-mounting the print in a passepartout and framing in a black wooden box. It is widely accepted as the most traditional way to frame photography—especially rare or vintage works—giving visual priority to the image and yet fitting stylishly into most interiors. Other options are of course available. All our frames are handmade by one of the UK's leading framing workshops, and are constructed to museum standards. Please note that prices do not include local taxes, framing or shipping.

We aim to ship works that are unframed within 2 weeks, and within 6 weeks for works that require framed. We always aim to get your print to you as quickly as possible! However, please note that the times above may vary depending on the work. For exact timings, please get in touch. All works are shipped from the UK. Please note that prices listed above does include framing, but excludes shipping costs and any relevant taxes that may vary depending on your location.
