EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases various illustrations and inscriptions left by criminals on ceramic vases, as studied by Cesare Lombroso in his renowned work "The Criminal Man" (L'uomo delinquente) published in 1876. Lombroso, an Italian criminologist, dedicated his life to understanding the complexities of criminal behavior. In this intriguing image, we are offered a glimpse into the minds of these individuals through their artistic expressions. Each vase tells a unique story, revealing the inner workings of these criminals' psyches. The drawings and inscriptions depict a range of emotions and themes - from disease and face to knowledge and psychology. Lombroso's groundbreaking research focused on anthropometry - the measurement of human physical characteristics - which he believed could provide insights into criminal tendencies. By analyzing these ceramic vases adorned with intricate artwork created by convicted individuals, Lombroso aimed to unravel the mysteries behind criminal behavior. The unknown artist responsible for capturing this snapshot skillfully portrays both the beauty and darkness that coexist within each piece. This collection serves as a testament to how art can transcend boundaries and shed light on our collective humanity. Preserved in a private collection today, these ceramic vases continue to intrigue scholars interested in criminology, anthropology, and the study of learned behaviors. Giancarlo Costa's masterful photography ensures that this historical treasure remains accessible for all those seeking to delve deeper into our complex understanding of crime and its origins.
