These photos are from 1898, by which point they had actually been using high-speed photography for a couple decades ( Muybridge’s famous Galloping Horse images were from '78). The multi-minute exposure times were from the 1860s and earlier, but this was more or less the era of modern photography, when a studio photograph could be taken in less than 1/25 of a second, allowing the capture of fleeting expressions.
