EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a world of crime and anthropology. The subject of this portrait is Sebastien Bissonier, a 19-year-old day laborer born in St Bonnet, Allier. His face tells a story of defiance as he stands before the Gendarmerie, accused of an outrageous act on March 5th, 1894. Bertillon's expertise in identification and anthropometry is evident in this mugshot-style image. With meticulous precision, he captures every detail of Sebastien's features - his strong jawline, piercing eyes, and unkempt hair that speaks volumes about his life as a working-class man. As we gaze at this photograph housed within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, we are transported to another time and place - France during the late 19th century. It serves as a reminder that crime knows no boundaries or social classes. Beyond its historical significance lies the artistry behind Bertillon's composition. The contrast between light and shadow creates depth while emphasizing Sebastien's rugged masculinity. This albumen silver print showcases Bertillon's mastery in capturing not only physical appearances but also emotions hidden beneath the surface. Through this powerful image, we catch a glimpse into both the scientific advancements made by Bertillon himself and society's fascination with criminality during that era. It stands as a testament to photography’s ability to preserve moments frozen in time
