EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Ravachol, also known as Francois Claudius Königstein, at the age of 33. Born in St-Chamond, Loire, he was sentenced on April 27th, 1892. The photograph is a testament to the meticulous work of Alphonse Bertillon, an influential figure in anthropology and physical anthropology. Bertillon's expertise in identification techniques shines through this mugshot-style portrait. His innovative methods revolutionized criminal investigation during the late 19th century. This particular image showcases his mastery of capturing a subject's essence while adhering to scientific standards. Ravachol's intense gaze seems to hint at a complex personality hidden beneath his stoic exterior. As we delve into history, we discover that he was condemned for committing crimes that shook France during that era. This photograph serves as both evidence and documentation of his role within society. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this albumen silver print stands as a testament to Bertillon's legacy and contribution to forensic science. It offers us a glimpse into an intriguing chapter of French history where crime met innovation. As we admire this piece from Heritage Art collection today, let us reflect on how photography has not only captured moments but also played an essential role in shaping our understanding of individuals like Ravachol who left their mark on society - whether it be through their actions or their portrayal in art forms such as this one.
