EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print captures the intriguing portrait of Henri Peticolin, a 23-year-old varnisher from Goersdorf, Bas-Rhin. The photograph was taken by renowned French anthropologist and criminologist Alphonse Bertillon in 1894. Henri's mugshot-like image reflects the meticulous approach of Bertillonage, a pioneering system developed by Bertillon to identify criminals through precise measurements and physical characteristics. This photograph showcases the intersection between science, anthropology, and law enforcement during that era. Beyond his occupation as a varnisher, Henri's political affiliation is also revealed - he identifies himself as an anarchist. This detail adds another layer of complexity to his persona captured within this striking black-and-white image. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece in its collection, representing both historical significance and artistic heritage. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into the lives of individuals who lived during a time when photography was emerging as an essential tool for identification purposes. Alphonse Bertillon's work revolutionized criminal investigation techniques and left an indelible mark on forensic science. His photographs not only served practical purposes but also became valuable artifacts documenting people's lives at that particular moment in history. As we observe Henri Peticolin's arresting gaze frozen in time through this print, we are reminded of the power that photography holds in capturing human stories and preserving our collective past for generations to come.
