EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "L anthropometrie judiciaire ou bertillonnage, methode d'Alphonse Bertillon" takes us back to the late 19th century in France. The image showcases the meticulous process of anthropometry, a method developed by Alphonse Bertillon (1853-1914) for criminal identification. Intriguingly detailed, the print depicts a scene from "La Science francaise" in 1892. It highlights one specific aspect of Bertillon's technique: measuring the length of the "cubit". This measurement was crucial in identifying individuals accurately during police investigations. The engraving transports us to a time when scientific advancements were revolutionizing law enforcement practices. Through this visual representation, we can appreciate both the artistic skill involved and the historical significance of this innovative approach to justice. The unknown artist behind this masterpiece has expertly captured not only the technical aspects but also evokes a sense of intrigue and curiosity surrounding early forensic science. The fine lines and intricate details draw our attention to every element within this composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, we are reminded that history is filled with fascinating stories waiting to be explored.
