Della Casa. 36 ans, né le 1/3/58 à Avoglion (Italie). Cordonnier. Anarchiste. 2/7/94. 1894

"Della Casa. 36 ans, né le 1/3/58 à Avoglion (Italie). Cordonnier. Anarchiste. 2/7/94" is a portrait photograph by Alphonse Bertillon, a French criminologist, taken as part of his anthropometric system for criminal identification. The portrait of "Della Casa" is a typical example of Bertillonage, a system of mugshots that used precise measurements of the body and unique physical characteristics to identify suspects. The mugshot, taken in 1894, includes a detailed description of the individual. This system was widely used by police departments around the world throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The portrait is now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City.
