A method of detecting zones liable to contain at least one finger print in an image of at least one portion of hand of an individual includes a step of acquiring the image, a step of determining a plurality of zones of the acquired image and a first selection step. The step of determining a plurality of zones determines that each zone is a continuous zone of points of the acquired image which each exhibit a luminous intensity level greater than or equal to a selected luminous intensity threshold value. The first selection step selects, from among the zones determined, the zones which are liable to represent at least one print of a finger.
