EDITORS COMMENTS
. This 19th-century albumen print captures the enigmatic figure of Hivon Pierre, a 45-year-old lithographer hailing from Bourbon le Chambai in Allier, France. With his striking beard and intense gaze, Pierre exudes an air of defiance and rebellion that aligns with his anarchist beliefs. The photograph is part of Alphonse Bertillon's anthropometric collection, showcasing his pioneering work in criminal identification and physical anthropology during this era. As a renowned artist himself, Bertillon recognized the power of photography as both an artistic medium and a scientific tool. In this arresting mugshot-style portrait, Hivon Pierre stands as a testament to the intersection between artistry and politics. His occupation as a lithographer underscores his creative prowess while also hinting at potential involvement in disseminating political messages through visual media. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this black-and-white print not only serves as documentation but also sparks contemplation about the complex relationship between crime, identity, and society during the late 19th century. Through its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, this image invites viewers to delve into the fascinating world of Alphonse Bertillon's groundbreaking work in forensic science while shedding light on one man's journey within French anarchism – forever captured by the lens of time.
