Alphonse Bertillon's photographic portrait, *Marty. Louis. 20 ans, né à Lacanne (Tarn). Tailleur d'habits. Anarchiste. 9/3/94.*, is part of his larger collection of mugshots taken of criminals in 19th-century France. Bertillon, a police official, utilized an anthropometric system to identify individuals, a forerunner to modern fingerprinting, and his photographs are considered a notable contribution to the development of criminology. The portrait, taken in 1894, presents the subject in a simple, frontal pose against a neutral backdrop.
