EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Defosse, also known as Claude Delfosse or Lafosse. At 29 years old, he was born in Arbeuf, Nievre, and worked as a coachman. However, his true identity lies in his affiliation with anarchism - an ideology that challenged societal norms during the late 19th century. Taken on January 2nd, 1894 by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases not only Defosse's physical appearance but also serves as an anthropometric record. Bertillon's pioneering work in identification techniques revolutionized criminal investigation at the time. Defosse's arrest is evident from this mugshot-style portrait. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this historical artifact that reflects both the artistry and scientific nature of early photography. Through its lens, we glimpse into a tumultuous period marked by political unrest and social upheaval. As we contemplate this image today, it offers us a window into France's rich heritage and reminds us of the power of visual documentation to preserve history. It prompts us to reflect on how individuals like Defosse played their part in shaping political discourse during their time. Let this photograph be a testament to the intersection between art and science while honoring those who dared to challenge established systems for a better world.
