EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print captures the enigmatic figure of Grugeau. Alfred, Alphonse, a 26-year-old cobbler hailing from Tours in Indre & Loire. The photograph showcases the arresting mug shot of this intriguing individual who not only practiced his trade but also identified himself as an anarchist. Taken on September 3rd, 1894, by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this black and white portrait exudes a sense of mystery and defiance. In an era marked by political unrest and social upheaval, Grugeau's anarchistic beliefs were undoubtedly seen as radical at the time. Bertillonage, a pioneering concept in physical anthropology and criminal identification developed by Bertillon himself, is evident in this meticulously composed image. Through precise measurements and detailed documentation of facial features and bodily characteristics, Bertillon aimed to create a scientific approach to crime prevention. As we gaze upon this historical artifact housed within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, we are transported back to a tumultuous period in French history where politics intersected with personal identity. Grugeau's mugshot serves as both evidence of his arrest for unknown reasons and as a testament to the power that photography held in documenting lives during that time. This print not only highlights one man's occupation but also offers us insight into larger societal issues such as political dissent and cultural heritage. It stands as a reminder that even within seemingly ordinary professions like shoemaking lies
