EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases the enigmatic figure of Breiner Jean-Baptiste, a 31-year-old mechanic from Bar sur Aube in France. Taken in 1894, this albumen silver print is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of Bertillon's anthropometric techniques. Intriguingly, Breiner Jean-Baptiste identifies himself as an anarchist, hinting at his political leanings during a time of social unrest. The photograph serves as both an identification tool for law enforcement purposes and a fascinating glimpse into the life of an individual living on the fringes of society. Bertillonage, pioneered by Alphonse Bertillon himself, revolutionized criminal identification through precise measurements and physical characteristics. This portrait captures not only Breiner Jean-Baptiste's facial features but also provides insight into his occupation as a mechanic - showcasing how photography merged with science to aid in crime prevention. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this nineteenth-century artifact stands as a powerful reminder of our collective heritage. It represents an era where photography served multiple purposes: documenting individuals' identities while simultaneously contributing to advancements in anthropology and physical sciences. As we gaze upon this arresting mugshot-like image, we are transported back in time to witness the convergence between artistry and scientific innovation that defined Alphonse Bertillon's work. Through this photograph, we catch glimpses into both personal stories like that of Breiner Jean-Baptiste and broader
