EDITORS COMMENTS
Leonard. Aime. 30 ans, ne a Chalonne/s/Loire (Maine & Loire). Mineur ou gazier. Anarchiste. 27/2/94.1894) - A Glimpse into the Life of an Anarchist in 19th Century France This print captures Leonard Aime, a man with a defiant gaze and an intriguing story to tell. Born in Chalonne/s/Loire (Maine & Loire), Leonard was just thirty years old when this photograph was taken by Alphonse Bertillon in 1894. A coal miner or gas worker by profession, Leonard's striking appearance reflects his rebellious spirit as an anarchist during a time of political unrest in France. The mugshot-like composition suggests that he may have been arrested for his radical beliefs or involvement in criminal activities related to anarchism. Alphonse Bertillon, known for his pioneering work in anthropometry and identification techniques, captured not only Leonard's physical features but also the essence of his political stance through this portrait. This remarkable image serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression within the realm of heritage art photography. It offers us a glimpse into the industrial landscape of late 19th century France while shedding light on the social and political tensions that shaped its society. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this albumen silver print stands as a testament to Bertillon's scientific approach to photography
