This 1894 photographic portrait by Alphonse Bertillon is part of a series known as the "Bertillon System" which was used to identify criminals and track their movements. This particular image is of Augustin Dupuis, a 53-year-old anarchist from Dourdan, France, who worked as a wheelwright and blacksmith. The photograph shows Dupuis with a stern expression and his detailed biographical information is written on the card underneath him. The Bertillon system was a method of criminal identification based on precise body measurements, developed by Alphonse Bertillon, a French police officer. Bertillon’s system was widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
