EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Baumester. Augustin, Etienne, a 49-year-old decorator and self-proclaimed anarchist from Paris VIe. Taken in 1894 by the renowned French photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in anthropometry and criminal identification. Baumester's stern expression hints at a life filled with defiance against societal norms. His arrest record suggests involvement in political activities that challenged the established order of 19th-century France. As an anarchist, he stood for radical ideas and fought for individual freedom. Bertillon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this mug shot-style portrait. The composition highlights Baumester's distinct features while maintaining a sense of objectivity required for scientific analysis. This photograph not only serves as evidence of his encounter with law enforcement but also provides valuable insights into physical anthropology during that era. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this image represents more than just one man's story; it encapsulates an entire period marked by social unrest and ideological clashes. It serves as a reminder of how art can intertwine with science to document history and shed light on past struggles. As we gaze upon Baumester's face frozen in time, we are invited to ponder the complexities of human existence: our desires for personal liberty, our yearning for justice, and our eternal quest to challenge authority when necessary.
