The mystery of the man in the hat

The network is speculating about the identity of the man with an umbrella, hat, dark coat and a beige vest, photographed just a few hours later at the crime scene by Associated Press journalist Thibault Camus.

Among the minor mysteries of the theft at the Louvre Museum last Sunday is the identity of a man who was photographed just hours later at the scene of the crime, holding an umbrella, while wearing a dark coat, a beige vest and a hat.

The upright position and elegance, somewhat unusual for today's fashion, which stood out alongside the image of two police officers leaning lightly on the Peugeot service car, attracted the attention of Melisa Chen, a contributor to the British newspaper The Spectator, who shared the image on the social network X, suggesting that it was a French detective.

In the rain of mockery and jokes against the French and references to Inspector Clouseau that have spread online since Sunday, there was also room for a deviation from the topic by journalist Chen, who wrote about that unknown man: "Real photo (and not created with artificial intelligence!) of a French detective working on the jewelry case. He looks like he's drinking even without a cigarette in his hand (…), but to solve the case we need a bearded, overweight, divorced detective. An alcoholic hated by his colleagues, not a detective wearing a 'fedora' hat without irony."

The journalist's post was a huge success, viewed by millions of people around the world, some of whom tried to verify whether the photo was real and imagine who the man could be.

At the fair of stereotypes about the French, there was no shortage of hypotheses about the resurrection of Alain Delon or Jean-Paul Belmondo, but the online search for the character's identity received an important clue on Thursday, when the author of the photo at least explained that it was not about a detective.

Thibault Camus, the Associated Press photographer who took the image, confirmed that the photo was authentic and had not been processed with artificial intelligence.

"I don't know him, I don't know if he's French. Maybe a tourist? Maybe English."

Just a passerby, photographed like many others. But the hat made the difference./ Corriere della Sera
