Shot in 1924, Ski Jumper likely owes its crisp clarity to tremendous technical advancements in cameras of the decade allowing for much shorter shutter speeds. This leap (get it?) in photo technology was part of an ongoing pursuit of innovation for capturing high-speed sports. An earlier example of this ever-evolving shutter tech can be seen in another 20x200 Vintage Edition, A perilous ride. Shot almost forty years prior, the sportsman in A perilous ride is well-defined, yet the spokes of the wheels remain blurred by such rapid rotation. In contrast, after decades of lens and shutter improvements, Ski Jumper appears frozen in time and as sharp as the tips of his skis.
