EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Ponchia Charles, an Albino man from Montanaro, Italy. At 32 years old, he is portrayed with a sense of mystery and defiance in his eyes. A skilled carpenter by profession, Charles also identifies himself as an anarchist. Taken in 1894 by renowned French photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in anthropometry - the scientific study of human body measurements for identification purposes. Bertillon's innovative method revolutionized criminal investigation techniques during that era. The photograph serves as a powerful testament to the intersection between art and science. It not only documents Charles' physical features but also hints at his political beliefs through the subtle portrayal of anarchism. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this historical artifact within its collection. As we gaze upon this intriguing portrait, we are transported back to a time when photography was still emerging as both an artistic medium and a tool for law enforcement. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into Charles' world - his occupation as a carpenter intertwined with his rebellious spirit. Alphonse Bertillon's work continues to inspire us today, reminding us of the power that lies within photographs to capture moments in history and shed light on individuals who have left their mark on society.
