EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pivat. Georges, Leopold. 34 ans, ne a Vauxcie (Aisne)" offers a glimpse into the intriguing world of 19th-century France. Taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases the meticulous artistry of his anthropometric techniques. The subject of this arresting portrait is Georges Pivat, a 34-year-old tailor from Vauxcie in Aisne. However, there is more to him than meets the eye - he proudly identifies himself as an anarchist. The photograph was taken on September 3rd, 1894 when Pivat found himself on the wrong side of the law. Bertillon's expertise in criminal identification shines through in this mugshot-style image. His pioneering work in physical anthropology and anthropometry revolutionized forensic science during that era. As we delve into this historical artifact preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back to a time when politics and crime intertwined amidst societal unrest. Pivat's occupation as a tailor juxtaposes with his political beliefs - showcasing how individuals from diverse professions were drawn towards anarchism. Through this powerful image captured over a century ago, we are reminded of the enduring significance of photography as both an artistic medium and scientific tool for documenting history. It serves as a testament to Bertillon's legacy and provides us with valuable insights into French society during that tumultuous period.
