EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1892 showcases the fascinating world of forensic science during the late 19th century. Titled "L anthropometrie judiciaire ou bertillonnage, methode d'Alphonse Bertillon" it depicts Alphonse Bertillon's revolutionary method of anthropometry - a system used to identify criminals based on physical measurements. In this specific image, we see an unknown artist's interpretation of Bertillon measuring the transverse diameter of a person's skull. This meticulous process was crucial in distinguishing individuals and aiding police investigations at the time. The engraving is taken from "La Science francaise" a renowned publication that disseminated scientific knowledge across France. The historical significance of this artwork lies in its representation of early advancements in criminal justice and forensic techniques. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in solving crimes through modern methods like DNA analysis and fingerprinting. Stefano Bianchetti has beautifully preserved this piece as part of his private collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and its contribution to our understanding of law enforcement history. As an out-of-copyright print, it continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details while serving as a testament to human ingenuity and progress in the field of justice.
