This photographic portrait, taken in 1894 by Alphonse Bertillon, is part of a series of mugshots documenting individuals within the French criminal justice system. The subject, Tramcourt, is described as a 27-year-old anarchist mechanic. This "mugshot" exemplifies the work of Bertillon, a pioneer in criminal identification, who employed anthropometry, a system using body measurements to categorize individuals, as a method of identification. The image is a stark representation of the era’s approach to criminal justice, highlighting the focus on physical characteristics and classification.
