EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Gordon. Max. 39 ans, ne le 20/8/54 a Vilna (Italie). Employe de commerce" captures the essence of an intriguing individual from the late 19th century. Taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in anthropometry and criminal identification. The subject of this arresting portrait is Gordon Max, a man with a rebellious spirit evident through his anarchist beliefs. With piercing eyes and a stern expression, he exudes both determination and defiance against societal norms. The photograph's clarity allows us to delve into the intricate details of his face, revealing lines etched by life experiences. Bertillon's meticulous approach to photography shines through as he skillfully captures every contour and feature of Gordon Max's face for identification purposes. This image serves as evidence that photography can be more than just art; it can also aid in scientific endeavors such as physical anthropology. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece stands as a testament to Bertillon's contribution to both artistry and criminology during the late 19th century in France. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on the intersection between politics, crime, and personal identity within historical contexts. As we gaze upon Gordon Max's mugshot frozen in time over a century ago, we are reminded of the power that photographs hold - not only capturing moments but also preserving stories waiting to be discovered by curious minds
