EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of an era filled with political unrest and social change. The subject of this arresting portrait is Frederic Colombet, a 28-year-old man born in Prigonnieux, Dordogne. With his intense gaze and well-groomed mustache, Colombet exudes both confidence and defiance as he stands before the camera lens. As an employee in the world of commerce, it is intriguing to see him identify himself as an anarchist - a political ideology that challenges established authority. Bertillon's meticulous anthropometric techniques are evident in this photograph; every detail meticulously captured for identification purposes. This image serves as a testament to his pioneering work in physical anthropology and criminal science during that time. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has preserved this remarkable piece of heritage art which not only showcases individuality but also reflects the broader socio-political climate of France at that time. It offers us a glimpse into the life of one man who dared to challenge societal norms through his beliefs. As we observe this striking mugshot from over a century ago, we are reminded how photography can transcend time and capture moments that continue to intrigue and inspire us today.
