EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print captures the intriguing figure of Jean Louis Paget, a 41-year-old cobbler and self-proclaimed anarchist. Born on July 15,1852, in Thonon, Haute-Savoie, France, Paget's mugshot was taken by Alphonse Bertillon on March 12,1894. The image showcases the meticulous anthropometric techniques employed by Bertillon to identify criminals. Bertillonage was a groundbreaking concept in forensic science at the time. By measuring various physical characteristics such as height, head shape, and facial features like ear size and nose length, Bertillon aimed to create an accurate system for criminal identification. Paget's portrait not only serves as evidence of his arrest but also provides insight into the political climate of late-19th century France. Anarchism was gaining momentum during this period with its radical ideas challenging established norms. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece that combines artistry with scientific documentation. Beyond its historical significance lies a captivating story of a man who defied societal conventions through both his profession and political beliefs. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded of how photography can capture not just faces but also moments frozen in time – glimpses into lives lived long ago that continue to intrigue us with their untold stories.
