17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print showcases the enigmatic figure of Schwartz. Auguste, a 31-year-old leatherworker and self-proclaimed anarchist hailing from Paris XIIe. Born on January 23rd, 1863, this mugshot-like portrait captures his essence with striking clarity. The black and white composition adds an air of mystery to the image, emphasizing the contrast between light and shadow. Alphonse Bertillon's meticulous anthropometric techniques are evident in this photograph, as he sought to document individuals for identification purposes within the realm of criminal justice. This arresting image serves as a testament to Bertillonage - a system developed by Alphonse Bertillon himself - which aimed to classify criminals based on their physical characteristics. Schwartz's defiant gaze hints at his political leanings and rebellious nature as an anarchist during a time when France was grappling with social unrest. His occupation as a maroquinier (leatherworker) further highlights his working-class background and perhaps sheds light on his motivations for embracing anarchism. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this historical artifact not only offers insight into one man's life but also provides valuable documentation for scholars studying anthropology, photography, and political history. Through its powerful portrayal of Schwartz. Auguste. , this photograph invites viewers to ponder upon notions of identity, crime, politics, and human existence in late-19th century France.
