This photographic portrait, "Borderie. Ferdinand, Jacques. 19 ans, né à Sarlat (Dordogne). Peintre sur métaux. Pas de motif. 1/3/94.", is a work by Alphonse Bertillon from 1894. Bertillon was a French criminologist and anthropologist, known for his pioneering work in anthropometry, a system of identification based on body measurements. This photograph is a prime example of Bertillon's photographic documentation of criminals, which served as a method for police identification. The image is a frontal, close-up portrait of a young man, Ferdinand Jacques Borderie, presented in a standard mugshot format.
