On a wet May morning in 1938, a young photographer named Edmund Engelman was invited by a coworker of Prof. Dr. Sigmund Freud to photograph the renowned psychoanalyst's cherished winter residence at number 19, Bergasse, in Vienna's 9th district. For the first time in book form, here are the fruits of Engelman's project, a precious visual chronicle of Sigmund Freud's private life. This remarkable collection features some of the only extant photographs of Freud's storied analyst's couch, along with pictures of his library, his collection of Near Eastern art, and several rare photographs of Freud himself just weeks before the Nazi occupation forced him to leave Vienna forever. Published on the occasion of an exhibition of Engelman's photos traveling to the library of Congress and the Jewish Museum in New York City, Sigmund Freud:Bergasse 19 is an unprecedented look into the personal universe of the man who revolutionized modern psychology.
