"Gatinet. Pierre, Adrien. 50 ans, né le 13/10/43 à Bourges (Cher). Charpentier. Anarchiste. 2/7/94." is a photographic portrait of Pierre Adrien Gatinet, a French anarchist carpenter, taken by Alphonse Bertillon in 1894. The photograph is part of Bertillon's system of criminal identification, which used a series of standardized measurements and photographs to record the physical characteristics of individuals. This image, along with other portrait photographs, were used to create a unique record for each criminal, helping to identify them in the future. The photograph is a stark and simple depiction of Gatinet, and its small size emphasizes the impersonal nature of Bertillon's system.
