EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print showcases a mugshot of Margerand Claude, a 32-year-old cobbler from Beaujeu, Rhone. The photograph was taken by the renowned French anthropologist and criminologist Alphonse Bertillon in 1894. In this black and white portrait, we see Margerand's stern expression as he stares directly into the camera. Margerand's occupation as a shoemaker is evident from his rugged hands and worn-out attire. However, it is his political affiliation that adds an intriguing dimension to this image - he identifies himself as an anarchist. This detail hints at the turbulent times in France during the late 19th century when political unrest and social movements were on the rise. Bertillon's expertise in physical anthropology is apparent through his meticulous documentation of Margerand's features for identification purposes. His innovative system of anthropometry aimed to establish scientific methods for criminal investigation. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph serves not only as a historical record but also as a testament to the intersection between art and science during that era. It offers us insight into both Margerand's individual story and broader societal dynamics surrounding crime, politics, and profession. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking image captured over a century ago, we are reminded of how photography can preserve fragments of our collective heritage while simultaneously sparking curiosity about lives lived long before our time.
