EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases Vuagniaux Alfred, a 41-year-old cobbler from Vucheron, Switzerland. The photograph captures his striking portrait in black and white, revealing the intricate details of his face and expression. Vuagniaux's intriguing background as an anarchist adds depth to this image, shedding light on the political climate of the time. His arrest is evident from the mugshot-like composition, emphasizing the significance of this moment in history. Bertillonage, a pioneering concept developed by Alphonse Bertillon himself, played a crucial role in criminal identification during that era. This photograph serves as an important artifact within this field of study and highlights its intersection with anthropology and physical science. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this remarkable piece within their collection of heritage art. Its historical value lies not only in documenting Vuagniaux's occupation but also in capturing a snapshot of French society at the time. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back to an era where professions like shoemaking held great importance and individuals like Vuagniaux fought for their political beliefs against societal norms.
