EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Mathieu. Gustave. 1880s-90s" takes us back to the late 19th century in France, where Alphonse Bertillon, a renowned creator and anthropologist, captured this striking image. The black and white albumen silver print showcases Mathieu Gustave, a distinguished French gentleman of that era. Bertillon's expertise in physical anthropology is evident as he skillfully portrays Mathieu with utmost precision and detail. This portrait serves not only as a piece of art but also as an important tool for identification purposes during that time. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported to an era when photography was still emerging as a science and art form. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this remarkable piece from the 19th century, showcasing its significance in both historical documentation and artistic expression. Through his lens, Bertillon captures the essence of Mathieu's character while preserving his heritage for generations to come. This photograph stands as a testament to the power of visual storytelling and its ability to transcend time. Intriguingly composed against a plain background, Mathieu's presence commands attention; his gaze seems contemplative yet inviting further exploration into his life story. With every glance at this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of the rich history encapsulated within it - an enduring tribute to both Bertillon's mastery behind the camera lens and Mathieu Gustave himself.
