EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alphonse Bertillon captures the essence of Paul Boulnois, a 20-year-old Parisian anarchist. Taken in 1894, this albumen silver print showcases the meticulous anthropometric techniques employed by Bertillon to identify criminals during that era. In this thought-provoking portrait, Boulnois exudes an air of defiance and rebellion. His piercing gaze seems to challenge societal norms and question authority. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to his features, emphasizing his determination. Bertillon's expertise in physical anthropology is evident in this image as he meticulously documents every detail of Boulnois' appearance. From his birthplace (Paris Ille) to his profession (commerce employee), each piece of information contributes to the comprehensive identification process developed by Bertillon. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph serves as a testament to the power of visual storytelling. It not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers insight into the political climate of late 19th-century France. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece exemplifies how art can transcend its medium and become a window into another era. As we observe Paul Boulnois through Alphonse Bertillon's lens, we are reminded that photography has always been more than just capturing images; it is a tool for understanding our past and reflecting on our present.
