EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Henri-Louis Roussel, a 28-year-old Parisian born on October 2nd, 1865. In this arresting portrait, Roussel is depicted as an ardoiseur (a slate roofer) with a striking gaze that hints at his rebellious nature. The inscription reveals that he identifies himself as an anarchist. Taken in 1894 by Alphonse Bertillon, a pioneer in anthropometry and criminal identification techniques, this image represents more than just a mugshot. It embodies the intersection of art and science during the late 19th century. Bertillon's meticulous approach to capturing physical measurements aimed to classify individuals based on their unique features. Roussel's arrest adds another layer of intrigue to this photograph. His defiant expression challenges societal norms while reflecting the political climate of France at the time. Anarchism was gaining momentum as individuals sought alternative ideologies amidst growing social unrest. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this albumen silver print serves as both historical documentation and artistic representation. Its monochromatic palette enhances its timeless quality while emphasizing Roussel's individuality against a blank background. As we delve into this fascinating piece from Heritage Images, we are reminded not only of our shared human heritage but also how photography can capture moments that transcend time itself – freezing fragments of history for generations to come.
