EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Vendel. Jules. 34 (ou 33) ans, ne le 2/4/61 a Chevry (Ain)" captures the essence of a man named Jules Vendel in his early thirties during the late 19th century. The image is an albumen silver print taken by Alphonse Bertillon, a renowned French anthropologist and pioneer in criminal identification. Jules Vendel, depicted as a kitchen porter or garcon de cuisine, exudes an air of mystery with his piercing gaze and rugged appearance. However, it is not just his occupation that defines him; he proudly identifies himself as an anarchist - a political ideology that challenges established authority. The photograph serves as more than just a mug shot; it represents the intersection of science and art through Bertillon's innovative techniques in physical anthropology. By capturing precise measurements of various body parts, such as the head and limbs, Bertillon aimed to create a foolproof system for identifying criminals based on their unique physical characteristics. As we delve into this historical artifact from France's past, we are reminded of the significance of photography in documenting our collective heritage. This thought-provoking portrait invites us to ponder upon questions surrounding identity, crime prevention methods employed during that era, and broader socio-political movements like anarchism. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art today under its vast collection of cultural treasures from around the world, this photograph stands as both
