EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the life of Sachet Edmond, a 27-year-old typesetter born in Mézières, Ardennes. The image captures more than just a portrait; it tells a story of rebellion and political ideology. Sachet proudly identifies as an anarchist, challenging societal norms and advocating for radical change during a time when such beliefs were met with resistance. Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry is evident in this mugshot-style photograph. The meticulous attention to detail showcases his scientific approach to criminal identification and physical anthropology. As we examine this historical artifact, we are transported to France - the country where Sachet lived and fought for his ideals. This image serves as both evidence of his arrest and a testament to his unwavering dedication towards political activism. Through photography's lens, we gain insight into not only Sachet's occupation as a typographer but also the complexities of society at that time - where law enforcement clashed with those who challenged established norms. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this albumen silver print stands as a reminder of our shared heritage and the power that images hold in capturing moments frozen in time.
