EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Kieffer Nicolas, a 35-year-old carpenter from Haltuiller, Meurthe. Taken in 1894 by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases the intersection of art and science during the late 19th century. Nicolas's mugshot-like portrait is not just an ordinary photograph; it represents a significant moment in history when anthropometry played a crucial role in criminal identification. The meticulous measurements taken by Bertillon were part of his innovative system for classifying criminals based on physical characteristics. Beyond its scientific implications, this image also reveals Nicolas's political leanings as an anarchist. His occupation as a carpenter adds another layer to his story, highlighting how individuals from diverse professions were drawn to radical ideologies during that time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage artwork serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression. It reminds us of the complex interplay between politics and personal identity while offering insight into French society at the turn of the century. Alphonse Bertillon's work continues to be celebrated for its contribution to both photography and criminology. This particular print invites viewers to contemplate the concept of individuality within societal structures and reflects upon how our identities can be shaped by our chosen professions or political beliefs.
