EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Cluzel. Louis. 30 ans, ne le 31/8/63 a Bourg-Argental (Loire)" captures the essence of an intriguing figure from the past. Taken in the 19th century by Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases Louis Cluzel, a tailor by profession and an anarchist at heart. In this black and white portrait, we see a man who exudes determination and defiance through his piercing gaze. The meticulous anthropometric measurements taken by Bertillon add to the scientific nature of this photograph, highlighting its significance in criminal identification during that era. Louis Cluzel's arrest on July 2nd, 1894 is documented here as part of France's historical heritage. This image not only provides insight into Cluzel's personal story but also sheds light on the political climate of that time. Bertillonage, pioneered by Alphonse Bertillon himself, revolutionized forensic science and law enforcement practices. This photograph serves as a testament to his groundbreaking work in physical anthropology and criminal identification techniques. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece offers viewers a glimpse into both history and artistry. It encapsulates not only one man's life but also represents larger concepts such as individuality within society and the power dynamics between politics and personal beliefs. Through this photo print, we are transported back to an era where science met rebellion - where identities were captured with precision while ideologies challenged
