EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Mainfroy. Albert, Pierre" captures the essence of a man named Albert Pierre Mainfroy, an anarchist printer from Courbevoie, France. Taken in 1894 by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this black and white albumen silver print showcases Mainfroy's arresting presence. Intriguingly, the image not only serves as a visual record but also delves into the realm of anthropology and identification. The photograph is part of Bertillon's groundbreaking work in anthropometry - a scientific method used to classify individuals based on their physical measurements. This technique was widely employed for criminal identification during that era. Mainfroy's stern expression hints at his rebellious nature as an anarchist amidst political unrest in late 19th-century France. His occupation as an imprimeur (printer) further reflects his involvement in disseminating radical ideas through printed materials. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print stands as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence. It encapsulates the convergence of science and artistry within photography while shedding light on social dynamics prevalent during that time period. As we gaze upon Mainfroy's mugshot-like portrait today, we are transported back to an era where politics clashed with tradition and individuality challenged societal norms—a powerful reminder of our shared human history captured through Alphonse Bertillon's lens.
