EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases the intriguing faces of three young men: Bastard Elisee, Joseph Michel, and Elisee's brother. Born in Birnel (Oise) in 1893, these individuals were not your ordinary citizens. The photograph captures their essence as they stand proudly before the camera. Elisee, aged 22 at the time, worked as a skilled polisher while also embracing his identity as an anarchist. His rebellious spirit is evident through his association with anarchism and his mugshot-like portrait exudes defiance against societal norms. Joseph Michel stands beside him, equally enigmatic and mysterious. Bertillonage comes into play here - a revolutionary concept introduced by Alphonse Bertillon himself. This photographic technique aimed to identify criminals based on precise measurements of their physical features. In this image, we witness the intersection of art and science as anthropology meets photography. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece that encapsulates French history during a time when political unrest was rife. It serves as a testament to how photography can capture not only physical appearances but also political affiliations and social identities. As we gaze upon this black-and-white snapshot from the past, we are transported back to an era where crime and rebellion coexisted within society's underbelly. These men become more than just subjects; they represent a moment frozen in time - forever etched onto paper for us to ponder over their stories
