EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases the intriguing figure of Louis Alexandre Barbier, a 31-year-old accountant hailing from Jussecourt in Marne. The photograph captures his enigmatic presence as he gazes directly into the camera, revealing an air of defiance and rebellion. Barbier's anarchist beliefs are boldly stated, emphasizing his political stance against established systems and authority. Dated February 27th, 1894, this mugshot-like portrait serves as a testament to the turbulent times in which he lived. Alphonse Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry is evident in this meticulously composed black-and-white image. As a pioneer in criminal identification techniques, Bertillon employed precise measurements to classify individuals based on their physical features—a concept known as "bertillonage". This photograph stands as both an artistic representation and scientific documentation of Barbier's unique facial characteristics. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art piece offers viewers a glimpse into France's rich history during the late 19th century. It sheds light on the intersection between politics and law enforcement while showcasing photography's role as a tool for both artistic expression and scientific inquiry. The print invites contemplation about societal norms and challenges us to question our own perspectives on crime, identity, and personal freedom—themes that remain relevant even today.
