Charrie. Leon, Joseph - A Glimpse into the Life of a Parisian Anarchist
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon offers a fascinating insight into the life of Charrie. Leon, Joseph - a 27-year-old plumber hailing from Paris XVllle. The arresting portrait captures not only his physical appearance but also hints at his political beliefs and occupation. Leon's piercing black-and-white mugshot reveals an intense gaze that reflects both determination and defiance. His squinted eyes suggest astigmatism, adding to the intrigue surrounding this individual. As one delves deeper into the photograph's details, it becomes evident that this image served as an identification tool for law enforcement purposes during that era. Beyond its forensic significance, this photograph showcases Bertillon's pioneering work in anthropometry and physical anthropology. By meticulously measuring various facial features and recording personal information such as age and birthplace, Bertillon aimed to create a systematic method for criminal identification. However, what truly sets this image apart is its ability to transcend time; it allows us to reflect on the complex relationship between politics and society in late 19th-century France. Leon's profession as a plumber juxtaposed with his anarchist affiliation challenges conventional notions of social class and political ideology. Today, housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, this evocative print serves as a testament to both historical documentation and artistic expression. It reminds us how photography can capture not only visual appearances
