EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century albumen print by Alphonse Bertillon showcases the intriguing mugshot of Broggio, also known as Bernard. Aged 39 and born in Italy, he worked as a daily laborer. The photograph was taken on March 22nd, 1894, capturing an important moment in history. Bertillon's expertise in anthropometry is evident through this black and white portrait. His meticulous approach to identification and criminal investigation revolutionized the field of law enforcement during that time. This image serves as a testament to his significant contributions to physical anthropology and forensic science. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this remarkable piece within its collection. It provides us with a glimpse into French heritage art while shedding light on the country's crime scene from over a century ago. As we observe Broggio's stern expression, we can't help but wonder about his story—his involvement with an association of wrongdoers adds an air of mystery to his persona. Through this photograph, Bertillon captures not only the man but also the essence of an era filled with intrigue and fascination. Let us appreciate this historical artifact for its artistic value and scientific significance rather than any commercial use it may have had throughout time.
