Alphonse Bertillon's 1892 photographic portrait, "Ravachol. François Claudius Kœnigstein. 33 ans, né à St-Chamond (Loire). Condamné le 27/4/92.", is a striking example of the French criminologist's innovative "Bertillonage" system. This mugshot, part of a series documenting criminals, utilizes precise measurements and detailed descriptions to identify individuals. The image captures Ravachol, an anarchist, in a frontal pose, highlighting his facial features and clothing. Bertillon's method revolutionized criminal identification and influenced the development of mugshots.
