Muybridge made his most important photographic studies of motion from 1884 to 1887 under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania. These consisted of photographs of various activities of human figures, clothed and naked, which were to form a visual compendium of human movements for the use of artists and scientists.
From this point forward in time, Muybridge's work began to clearly show that the possibility of actual moving pictures or cine-photography, was a reality and not far from perfection. The image to the right of a horse jumping provides us with a marvelous rendering of how the moving horse would have appeared through the Zoopraxiscope, to the viewer in 1879.
