Cerebral palsy patient walking, Muybridge motion study, 1880s. Series of photographs showing a woman with cerebral palsy walking. Cerebral palsy is a developmental abnormality caused by damage to the brain of a baby during late pregnancy, childbirth or early childhood. It can result in anything from slight weakness and a lack of limb coordination to complete paralysis. These photographs were obtained by English photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge (1830-1904) in his pioneering work documenting the motion of humans and animals. Between 1883 and 1886, Muybridge made more than 100,000 images using his ground-breaking stop-motion photography techniques. In 1885 he partnered with Francis Dercum, chief of the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania's Dispensary for Nervous Diseases to study the movement of neurological patients. The results were published in 'Animal Locomotion' (1887). This study was published in Volume VIII: Abnormal Movements. Males and Females (nude and semi-nude).
