EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases Guillaume Auguste Bordes, a 40-year-old tailor from Centrayes, Aveyron. The photograph, taken on February 29th, 1894, is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection and offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of anthropometry and criminal identification. In this black and white portrait, Bordes stands with an air of mystery surrounding him. His facial hair in the form of a well-groomed mustache adds to his enigmatic presence. As one delves deeper into the image, it becomes evident that this mugshot-like photograph was captured for scientific purposes rather than artistic expression. Bertillonage - Alphonse Bertillon's innovative method for identifying criminals based on physical measurements - is at play here. This photograph served as a tool to document Bordes' unique features and aid in his identification if he were ever involved in any criminal activities. The composition exudes an aura of professionalism and precision befitting both the subject's occupation as a tailor and Bertillon's meticulous approach to his work. It serves as a testament to the intersection between science and law during that era. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece from Heritage Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness not only an individual but also an entire system dedicated to unraveling mysteries through photography and physical anthropology.
