Chiroki. Eva (veuve Ortiz). 53 ans, nee a Grosbitlech (Autriche) - A Captivating Glimpse into Anarchist Identity and Resistance
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing photograph captures the enigmatic Chiroki. Eva (veuve Ortiz), a 53-year-old woman born in Grosbitlech, Austria during the late 19th century. The image is an albumen silver print taken by renowned French photographer Alphonse Bertillon, known for his pioneering work in anthropometry. Eva's arresting gaze draws us into her world as we learn about her multifaceted identity - she was not only a cook but also an anarchist who fervently believed in challenging societal norms and advocating for political change. Her mugshot-like portrait serves as both an identification record and a testament to her rebellious spirit. Bertillon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this image, which showcases his scientific approach to photography and physical anthropology. Through this lens, he sought to understand criminals' characteristics and link them to their crimes. As we contemplate this historical artifact housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, it invites us to reflect on the complex interplay between politics, crime, and personal convictions during that era. Chiroki. Eva's portrait becomes more than just a mugshot; it becomes a symbol of resistance against oppressive systems. Intriguingly captured within this single frame lies the essence of Chiroki. Eva
