EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of an era filled with political unrest and social change. The subject of this arresting portrait is Charles Wallays, a 29-year-old tailor from Lille who proudly identifies as an anarchist. Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry shines through in this meticulously composed image, showcasing his pioneering work in physical anthropology and identification techniques. As one of the leading figures in criminal science at the time, Bertillon used photography as a tool for documenting individuals involved in crime or other significant events. The intensity on Wallays' face speaks volumes about his convictions and beliefs as he stares directly into the camera lens. His mugshot-like appearance hints at past encounters with law enforcement due to his anarchist activities. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into Wallays' world—a man driven by political ideals that challenged societal norms during a time when France was undergoing profound changes. Displayed within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this albumen silver print not only showcases Bertillon's technical mastery but also serves as a testament to our shared history—reminding us of those who dared to challenge authority while leaving their mark on society.
