EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the meticulous police records used by the Metropolitan Police in the 19th century to identify criminals. Each criminal was required to adopt specific attitudes in order to provide a maximum amount of information on distinguishing features such as ears, eyes, mouth, and hands. These details were crucial for accurately identifying individuals from photographic mug shots. The stark image captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the world of crime and punishment during this era. The profiles of these criminals are hauntingly preserved on paper, serving as a reminder of their past actions and the consequences they faced. As we study this historical document, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind each face. What led these individuals down the path of crime? Were they remorseful for their actions or defiant until the end? The power of identification through detailed records is evident in this image, showcasing how law enforcement worked tirelessly to bring justice to those who broke the law. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our society's ongoing battle against crime and our collective efforts to ensure safety and security for all. It stands as a testament to the importance of accurate record-keeping in upholding justice and holding individuals accountable for their actions.
