EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ridou. Paul, Francois. 27 (ou 28) ans. ebeniste. Anarchiste. 8 / 3 / 94.1894" captures the essence of a man named Ridou in the late 19th century. Taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in anthropometry and identification. Ridou is depicted as a striking figure with a well-groomed mustache and facial hair that exudes confidence and rebellion. At the age of either 27 or 28, he was an anarchist cabinet maker from France who found himself on the wrong side of the law. Bertillon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this mug shot-style portrait, which served as an essential tool for criminal identification during that era. The photograph not only captures Ridou's physical appearance but also provides insight into his occupation and political beliefs. As we gaze upon this image today, it offers us a glimpse into history - both personal and societal - shedding light on the complex relationship between crime, politics, and individual identity at that time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph stands as a testament to Bertillon's contribution to science through photography while preserving our cultural heritage for generations to come.
