Alphonse Bertillon's "Rey. Claude. 23 ans, né le 24/5/70 au Creusot (Saone & Loire). Ébéniste. Anarchiste. 12/3/94." is a portrait photograph from 1894. Part of the larger "Bertillon System" collection, this image uses the "mugshot" format to depict a criminal subject. The piece is a quintessential example of the practice of anthropometry, a photographic identification method developed by Bertillon. The photograph was taken in Paris, France and its inscription includes the subject's name, age, birthplace, occupation, and alleged crime.
