Anceau. Aime-Firmin - The Rebel Wood Carver of Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by Alphonse Bertillon in the 19th century, showcases a young man named Anceau. Aime-Firmin, aged 20 at the time. Born on February 18th, 1874, in the XIIe arrondissement of Paris, Aime-Firmin was not your ordinary wood carver. With an intense gaze and rugged features captured by Bertillon's lens, this mugshot reveals more than just a criminal record; it unveils a political ideology that defined Aime-Firmin's life - anarchism. As an anarchist sculptor known for his exceptional craftsmanship with wood, he challenged societal norms through his art and beliefs. The image serves as evidence of his arrest on July 17th, 1894 – a testament to his rebellious spirit within the confines of law and order. It also highlights how anthropometry played a significant role in criminal identification during that era. Aime-Firmin's portrait stands as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation. It represents the intersection between science and photography while shedding light on France's turbulent political landscape at the time. Now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this albumen silver print allows us to glimpse into the life of this enigmatic figure who defied convention through his profession as well as his unwavering commitment to anarchist principles.
