EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases Charles Emile Jacot, a 36-year-old anarchist peddler from Allenjoie (Doubs), France. The black and white albumen silver print captures the essence of an era marked by political unrest and social upheaval. Jacot's mugshot-like portrait reflects the meticulous anthropometric techniques employed by Bertillon, who was known for his pioneering work in criminal identification. This image serves as a testament to the intersection of science and art during that time period. The photograph offers a glimpse into Jacot's life as a street trader, highlighting his occupation as well as his political beliefs. As an anarchist colporteur, he actively challenged societal norms and advocated for radical change. His arrest on August 3rd, 1894, suggests that he faced opposition from authorities due to his political activities. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this historical artifact not only preserves Jacot's identity but also represents an important chapter in French history. It symbolizes the struggles faced by individuals fighting for their rights and freedoms amidst a rapidly changing world. Bertillon's expertise in capturing both physical features and character traits through photography makes this image more than just a simple mugshot; it becomes an invaluable piece of heritage art that tells stories beyond its subject matter.
