EDITORS COMMENTS
Maillard. Louis. 30 ans, né à Rennes (Ille & Vilaine): A Glimpse into the Anarchist Identity of a 19th Century French Man". This print by Alphonse Bertillon takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a rare insight into the life of Louis Maillard. At thirty years old, born in Rennes (Ille & Vilaine), Maillard was an employee of commerce and an ardent anarchist. Captured through the lens of anthropometry, this arresting mugshot reveals not only his physical features but also his political beliefs. The meticulous detail captured by Bertillon showcases the scientific approach used for identification purposes during that era. Intriguingly, this photograph becomes more than just a record of one man's existence; it represents a historical moment where politics and crime intersected. As we gaze upon Maillard's stern expression and contemplate his story, we are reminded of France's turbulent past and its struggle for social change. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this heritage art piece serves as a testament to human diversity and individuality amidst political unrest. It stands as evidence that even in those times long gone by, people like Louis Maillard dared to challenge societal norms with their radical ideologies. Alphonse Bertillon's work continues to fascinate us today as it bridges photography with anthropology—a powerful concept that captures both visual beauty and historical significance.
