EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a world of history and intrigue. The subject of this arresting image is none other than Jacques Decker, a 43-year-old tailor hailing from Grodeskersheim in Bas-Rhin. With his piercing gaze and rugged features, Decker exudes an air of defiance that perfectly matches his anarchist beliefs.

Bertillon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this portrait; from the precise measurements used for anthropometry purposes to capture physical characteristics accurately, to the composition itself which captures Decker's essence as a man with strong political convictions.
