Alphonse Bertillon's "Borderie. Raoul. 18 ans, né à Castelsarazin (Tarn & Garonne). Peintre en bâtiment. Anarchiste. 1/3/94." is a photographic portrait of a French anarchist, Raoul Borderie. This mug shot was taken in 1894 as part of the Bertillon system of anthropometry, which aimed to identify criminals through detailed physical measurements. The image exemplifies the genre of criminal photography, which flourished in the late 19th century, and highlights the intersection of art and forensic science.
