EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Pierlay Louis Victor, a 53-year-old sculptor born in Paris XVIle. The year is 1894, and Pierlay's portrait reflects not only his artistic prowess but also his rebellious spirit as an anarchist. The photograph belongs to the 19th-century albumen silver print collection by Alphonse Bertillon, a renowned French anthropologist and pioneer of criminal identification techniques. In this mugshot-style image, we witness the intersection of art and science as Bertillon combines his expertise in physical anthropology with photography to document individuals involved in crime. Pierlay's arresting gaze draws us into a world where politics intertwine with creativity. His defiant expression speaks volumes about his beliefs and challenges societal norms prevalent during that era. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that this photograph serves as more than just an identification tool; it encapsulates the essence of a man who dares to question authority. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's heritage collection, this remarkable piece offers viewers a glimpse into both personal identity and political ideology during a time when France was grappling with social unrest. Through Alphonse Bertillon's lens, we are transported back to an age where artistry met activism—a testament to how images can transcend their purpose and become powerful symbols of cultural significance.
