EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Captivating Glimpse into the Past This intriguing photo print, captured by Alphonse Bertillon in the late 19th century, offers a captivating glimpse into the life of Louis Dufour, a jeweler from Port-Ste-Marie in Lot & Garonne. At just 37 years old, Dufour's portrait exudes an air of mystery and defiance as he stands before the camera with his head held high. The photograph not only captures his physical appearance but also reveals his political affiliation as an anarchist – a bold declaration during a time when such ideologies were met with resistance. Bertillonage, a scientific method developed by Alphonse Bertillon himself for criminal identification purposes, is evident in this mug shot-style image. It showcases how photography was employed to aid law enforcement efforts and establish accurate records of individuals involved in criminal activities. The Metropolitan Museum of Art now houses this remarkable piece within its collection, serving as both historical evidence and artistic expression. Beyond its anthropological significance lies an exploration of identity and occupation that transcends time. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing portrait today, we are reminded of the rich heritage embedded within every individual's story – their struggles against societal norms or their pursuit of personal freedom amidst political unrest. This photograph serves as an enduring testament
