EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by Alphonse Bertillon in 1893, showcases three young men named Billon. Gabriel, Andre, and Adolphe are depicted at the age of 20, born in Boulogne-sur-Seine. The image captures their striking features with remarkable clarity. Alphonse Bertillon was a renowned typographer and pioneer in the field of anthropometry - the study of human body measurements for identification purposes. This photograph is a testament to his expertise and contribution to scientific advancements during the late 19th century. The subjects' stern expressions hint at a deeper story behind this mugshot-like portrait. It serves as a reminder that crime knows no boundaries or time periods; these men were likely involved in some form of criminal activity that led them to be captured through Bertillon's meticulous methods. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from France's past, it invites us to reflect on how society has evolved since then. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this piece as part of its heritage collection, preserving not only the memory of these individuals but also shedding light on an era when physical anthropology played a crucial role in law enforcement. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into the lives and occupations of these young men - Gabriel working as a typesetter while Andre pursued his profession as a typographer. Their identities forever frozen within this frame serve as both documentation and evidence for future generations studying history or seeking inspiration from our collective pasts.
