EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print, titled "Durieux. Alexis, Alberic. 20 ans, ne le 28/2/74 a Stains (Seine). Verrier" takes us back in time to the fascinating world of anthropology and criminal identification. The photograph was captured by renowned French photographer Alphonse Bertillon in 1894. In this black and white portrait, we see a young man named Alexis Durieux at the age of twenty. Born on February 28th, 1874 in Stains (Seine), France, Durieux worked as a verrier or glassblower. His stern expression hints at the seriousness of his profession and perhaps even his involvement with law enforcement. Bertillon's meticulous approach to photography is evident here as he employed anthropometry techniques for identification purposes. This scientific method involved measuring various physical features such as head size and facial characteristics to create detailed records known as mugshots or mug shots. As we delve into this historical artifact, it becomes clear that this image holds not only artistic value but also significant cultural importance. It provides valuable insights into the practices of crime prevention and investigation during the late nineteenth century in France. Today, this remarkable piece is housed within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection - an institution dedicated to preserving our rich heritage through art and science alike. Through its powerful visual narrative, Bertillon's photograph continues to captivate viewers with its blend of history, anthropology, and photographic mastery.
