EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Mentenich. Francois, Joseph, a 22-year-old anarchist cabinet maker from Paris XIIe in 1894. Taken by renowned photographer Alphonse Bertillon, this albumen silver print showcases his expertise in anthropometry and criminal identification. In this mug shot-style portrait, Mentenich's intense gaze reveals a man driven by political ideals and rebellion against societal norms. The meticulous details captured by Bertillon highlight the scientific approach to understanding physical characteristics as indicators of criminal behavior. The image transports us back to a time when photography was not only an art form but also a tool for law enforcement. It serves as a reminder of the fascinating intersection between science and politics during the late 19th century. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph stands as a testament to Bertillon's contribution to both heritage art and forensic anthropology. Its presence within the museum's collection allows viewers to delve into history through visual storytelling. As we observe Mentenich's arresting presence frozen in time, we are reminded that behind every face lies an intricate story waiting to be discovered. This photograph invites us to reflect on how society has evolved since then while acknowledging the enduring power of images in capturing moments that shape our collective memory.
