EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the meticulous study conducted by renowned Italian criminologist Cesare Lombroso in his groundbreaking work "The Criminal Man" (L'uomo delinquente) published in 1876. The image, captured by an unknown artist from the 19th century, is a testament to Lombroso's pioneering research on the demarches (movements) of different criminals and epileptics. Through this study, Lombroso aimed to unravel the intricate connection between physical characteristics and criminal behavior. His anthropometric approach involved analyzing various body parts such as the foot, face, and overall anatomy to identify distinct traits associated with criminality. This engraving serves as a visual representation of his findings. Lombroso's work not only revolutionized criminology but also contributed significantly to our understanding of human nature and disease. By examining these demarches closely, he sought to uncover hidden knowledge about criminal tendencies and epilepsy. This remarkable piece from a private collection offers viewers a glimpse into Lombroso's intellectual journey while highlighting the artistic talent of Giancarlo Costa who preserved this historical artifact for future generations. As we delve into this image, we are reminded of how far we have come in our exploration of crime prevention and rehabilitation based on scientific principles established by pioneers like Cesare Lombroso.
