EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases Perrot Jean, a 33-year-old cobbler from Tulle, Correze. Taken in 1894, this albumen silver print is an intriguing example of anthropometry, a scientific method used to identify individuals based on physical measurements. Perrot Jean's portrait reveals more than just his occupation; it also highlights his political beliefs as an anarchist. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has preserved this mugshot-like image as part of its heritage art collection, emphasizing the historical significance of criminal identification techniques. Bertillonage, pioneered by Alphonse Bertillon himself, revolutionized forensic science during the late 19th century. By meticulously measuring various body parts and recording personal details like age and birthplace, Bertillon aimed to create a foolproof system for identifying criminals. In this photograph, Perrot Jean stands against a plain backdrop with an enigmatic expression on his face. His features are captured sharply in high contrast black and white tones that enhance the intensity of the image. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, we are reminded not only of the individuality and complexity within each person but also how photography can serve as both art form and scientific tool. This thought-provoking print invites us to reflect upon our own identities while appreciating the intersection between politics and anthropology in early photographic practices.
