This was made with Anschutz's Chronophotographic camera (1882) with a very fast shutter and electrically timed release. It may look like an ordinary horse and carriage image, but study the legs and you can see what he was aiming at. The pencil inscription on the lower right, possible in Anschutz's hand, is unclear. Anschutz's red stamp on the verso has the date and "Selbstverlag" (self-published.)
