EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ferter. Ernest, Charles" captures the essence of a man named Ernest Charles at 31 years old. Born on October 23rd, 1862 in Melun, Seine & Marne, he is depicted as a mischievous character with an anarchist spirit. The photograph was taken on July 2nd, 1894 by Alphonse Bertillon. Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry and his pioneering work in criminal identification are evident in this arresting image. The mugshot-like portrait showcases the scientific approach to identifying individuals based on their physical characteristics. With its meticulous attention to detail and precision, this photograph serves as both a historical record and an art form. Ernest Charles appears to have worked as a chimney sweep - a job that reflects the social realities of the time period. His disheveled appearance adds depth to his story and highlights the struggles faced by working-class men in late 19th-century France. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this albumen silver print stands as a testament to Bertillon's significant contributions to photography and forensic science. Beyond its technical merits, it offers us glimpses into French society during that era while raising questions about political ideologies prevalent at the time. As we admire this powerful image captured over a century ago, let us appreciate how art can transcend time and provide insights into our shared human history.
