Breton. Ernest, Jean. 28 ans, 27/10/63. Anarchiste 24/1/94.1894 - A Glimpse into the Portrait of Rebellion
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the late 19th century in France, where a young man named Ernest Jean Breton stands defiantly before the lens of history. At only 28 years old, his face bears the marks of an anarchist spirit that refuses to be silenced. The image captures more than just a mugshot; it encapsulates a moment frozen in time when political unrest and social upheaval were rampant in France. As an anthropometric photograph, it serves as evidence of Bertillon's innovative system for criminal identification. In this arresting portrait, we witness not only Breton's physical features but also his rebellious essence that led him down a path divergent from societal norms. The lines etched on his face tell tales of defiance against authority and resistance against injustice. Through this powerful image, we are reminded of the intricate relationship between art and science during this era – how photography became instrumental in both documenting crime scenes and capturing human identity within its frames. As we gaze upon Breton's countenance today at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind those eyes – what drove him to embrace anarchism? What battles did he fight for justice? Alphonse Bertillon's photograph
