Print

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.

Framing

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.

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.

The Artist

Muybridge’s photographs fundamentally changed understandings of movement. He invented the first machine to project moving photographic images, the “zoopraxiscope”, which could be used to animate entire sequences of photographs, anticipating the rise of cinema. His work contributed enormously to the science of physiology and biomechanics.
