EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Labeyrie. Romain, a 19-year-old sculptor born on November 13,1874, in Cauna (Landes), France. The image is an albumen silver print from the late 19th century, taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon. Labeyrie's arresting gaze exudes both defiance and vulnerability as he stands before the camera lens. His anarchistic beliefs are evident through his piercing eyes and resolute expression. This mugshot-like portrait not only serves as a documentation of his physical appearance but also provides insight into his political leanings during this tumultuous period in history. Alphonse Bertillon was not only a skilled photographer but also an anthropologist known for developing anthropometry techniques used in criminal identification. In this photograph, he masterfully combines artistry with scientific precision to capture Labeyrie's unique features. The Metropolitan Museum of Art now houses this remarkable piece within its heritage art collection. It serves as a testament to the intersection between art and politics during the late 19th century in France. As we delve into Labeyrie's story through this powerful image, we are reminded of how photography can transcend time and provide glimpses into individuals' lives that would otherwise be lost to history.
