Vaulting Horse Display (1900)
An astonishing display of synchronised gymnastics. The looping, synchronised vaults on display here are truly mesmerising - thanks both to the skill of the gymnasts and the shrewd positioning of the camera. Military and athletic displays were a popular subject for film from its earliest days, and this demonstration works as visual spectacle and study of movement.
