This 1894 photograph by Alphonse Bertillon, a pioneer in criminal identification, captures a portrait of Grégoire Alphonse, a 27-year-old mechanic and anarchist from La Montagne, France. The image is part of Bertillon's systematic approach to mugshot photography, using a standardized format and meticulous detail to help identify individuals. This particular photograph, "Grégoire Alphonse, 27 ans, né à La Montagne (Loire-Inférieure). Mécanicien. Anarchiste. 2/7/94.", is a testament to Bertillon's innovative system of anthropometry, now considered a precursor to modern forensic science.
