EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Raboin. emile, Pierre. 41 ans, ne a Ouzoir-sur-Loire (Loiret)" captures the essence of 19th-century criminal anthropology. Taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in the field of identification and physical anthropology. The subject of the photograph is Emile Pierre Raboin, a 41-year-old distiller from Ouzoir-sur-Loire in France's Loiret region. The image was taken on February 28th, 1894, providing us with an intriguing glimpse into the past. Bertillon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this mugshot-style portrait. Through his innovative system known as bertillonage, he aimed to standardize criminal identification methods using precise measurements of various body parts. As we examine Raboin's stern expression and rugged appearance, we are transported back to a time when photography served not only as art but also as an invaluable tool for law enforcement. This photograph stands as a testament to both Bertillon's scientific approach and his artistic sensibility. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this historical artifact offers us insight into French society during that era while highlighting the significance of photography in documenting crime and preserving our heritage.
