Sigmund Freud is considered one of the leading pioneers of modern-day psychological analysis and remains an influential writer regarding theories about mental health and the root causes of mental issues. Captured at the height of his career in 1921, this iconic photograph casts him in an academic style with a thoughtful demeanor. Freud was born in Austria in 1856 and studied medicine at the University of Vienna in 1881, and set up a clinical practice in 1886. Freud fled Austria in 1938 to avoid persecution after Germany annexed Austria. He would die one year later while exiled in England. Freud was the founder of Psychoanalysis, and Josef Breuer inspired his work and theories, though he refined these teachings throughout his career into the early twentieth century. Psychoanalysis is not widely practiced in recent years though it has influenced and given rise to other forms of therapy that are commonly practiced today. Freud published numerous works that became read by an audience outside of the medical community, and his students would go on to further develop the practice. One of his students, Carl Jung, would go on to create further forms of analysis and become a leader in new forms of analytical therapy. Freud's influence continues to be felt throughout the therapeutical and medical world, and his theories are widely taught in psychology courses at every level. This is an authentic piece of history that captures Freud as he became a well-known figure in both medical and public circles.
