EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print captures the intriguing figure of Gaston Chavanne, a 26-year-old engraver and self-proclaimed anarchist born in Paris VIe. The photograph, taken by renowned French photographer Alphonse Bertillon on February 28,1894, showcases Chavanne's mugshot as part of an anthropometric identification system. In this black and white portrait, Chavanne exudes a sense of defiance and rebellion. His piercing gaze and stern expression hint at his involvement in political activism during a time when anarchism was gaining momentum in France. As an engraver by profession, Chavanne may have used his artistic skills to disseminate anarchist ideas through visual propaganda. Bertillon's meticulous approach to photography aligns with his pioneering work in criminal anthropology. By capturing detailed measurements of individuals' physical features such as height, head shape, and facial characteristics like eye color or nose shape – known as bertillonage – he aimed to create a scientific method for identifying criminals. This image not only serves as evidence of Chavanne's arrest but also provides valuable insights into the social and political climate of late 19th-century France. It stands as a testament to the power that photography holds in documenting history and preserving our understanding of past events. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art under their heritage art collection, this photograph invites viewers to contemplate the intersection between artistry, science, politics, and personal identity within the context of one man's life.
