Counterfactual: Muybridge's Debt to
Watkins<http://www.nypl.org/events/programs/2011/11/01/counterfactual-muybridges-debt-watkins>



Weston Naef will speak on the visual dialogue between Carleton Watkins and
Eadweard Muybridge,

with reference to his forthcoming book, *Carleton Watkins: The Complete
Mammoth Photographs*.

The talk will present Watkins as the most dominant force in California
photography between 1860 and 1890,

and analyze Watkins' influence on Muybridge, who is considered to be the
father of moving pictures.



Weston Naef is the Curator Emeritus, Department of Photographs at the J.
Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles.

He was a NYPL Short Term Fellow in 2010 and is the author of several
influential studies of American photography

in addition to his many exhibitions for the Getty and, previous to his
