EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Para (ou Parra). Henri. 38 ans, ne le 16/5/56 a Paris Ve. Camelot. Anarchiste" captures the essence of an intriguing man named Henri. Taken in the late 19th century by Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases the artistry of early photography. Henri, a French anarchist at the age of 38, is portrayed with striking intensity and depth in his eyes. The image reveals his strong character and rebellious spirit as he stands before us as a symbol of resistance against societal norms. Alphonse Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry is evident through this mugshot-style portrait. Through meticulous measurements and identification techniques developed by Bertillon himself, this photograph serves not only as a record of Henri's arrest but also highlights the scientific advancements made during that time. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece within its collection, representing both historical significance and artistic excellence. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to an era where political unrest fueled passions for change. "Para (ou Parra). Henri" invites us to contemplate the complexities of human nature while reminding us that even in times long past, individuals like Henri dared to challenge authority for their beliefs. This thought-provoking image continues to be cherished as a testament to our shared heritage and serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with politics throughout history.
