EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures the essence of Serre. Auguste, a man of many facets and an intriguing figure in French history. At the age of 37, he stands before us with a gaze that reflects both determination and defiance. Auguste was not just another face in the crowd; he was an anarchist who challenged societal norms during the late 19th century in France. His occupation as a tanner allowed him to navigate between worlds - one foot firmly planted in his job while embracing his political beliefs. Alphonse Bertillon, renowned for his pioneering work in anthropometry and identification techniques, captured this arresting portrait as part of his groundbreaking research on criminal profiling. The image showcases Bertillon's mastery of albumen print photography, highlighting every intricate detail on Auguste's face – from the lines etched by time to the intensity behind his eyes. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back to an era where politics clashed with tradition and individuality fought against conformity. Serre. Auguste becomes more than just a mugshot; he represents a chapter in our collective heritage – a symbol of rebellion amidst social constraints. Through this powerful image, Alphonse Bertillon invites us to ponder not only Auguste's story but also our own place within history
