Galloping horse The Horse in Motion by Edward James Muggeridge. "Sallie Gardner," owned by Leland Stanford; running at a 1:40 gait over the Palo Alto track, 19th June 1878. Frames 1-11 used for animation, frame 12 not used. Kamish used a similar film of a horse running and found that he could combine the 12 repeating frames of a horse gallop into 6 unique sculptures set into a four foot high relief. The merging of Art & Science. All this information was then taken by Kamish who skillfully sculpted this piece so that it would come to life; thus resulting in a perfect gallop of a horse running. Another small tidbit on the colors chosen for the jockeys. Using the typical bright colors of the modern jockey, Kamish artistically painted these jockey’s using the same scheme of a color prism, thus being very attractive to the eye.
