Alfred Adler, Austrian psychiatrist
Alfred Adler (1870-1937), Austrian psychologist. Adler was a contemporary of Sigmund Freud, and was invited by him to join the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. Adler disagreed with Freuds theory that mental disorders had their roots in sexual traumas, and further disagreed with the sexual emphasis in Freuds dream interpretations. In 1911, Adler left Freuds group and formed his own school. In his book The Neurotic Constitution (1912) he outlined his theory of Individual Psychology : looking at a person as a whole rather than dividing them into smaller pieces.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychiatrist who made significant contributions to the field of psychology. Born in 1870, Adler was a contemporary of Sigmund Freud and was initially invited by him to join the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. However, their differing beliefs led Adler to break away from Freud's group in 1911 and establish his own school of thought. Adler strongly disagreed with Freud's theory that mental disorders stemmed from sexual traumas and criticized the excessive emphasis on sexuality in dream interpretations. Instead, he developed his groundbreaking theory of Individual Psychology, which focused on viewing individuals as complete entities rather than fragmented parts. He introduced the concept of an inferiority complex, highlighting how feelings of inadequacy can profoundly impact one's behavior and psychological well-being. This historical illustration beautifully captures Adler's intellectual prowess and influence during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With a satirical touch, it portrays this renowned psychologist as a white Caucasian man with a sense of humor—a nod to his ability to challenge prevailing theories while maintaining humility. Displayed proudly by Science Photo Library, this artwork serves as a reminder of Alfred Adler's lasting legacy within psychiatry and psychology. It symbolizes his pivotal role in shaping modern therapeutic approaches through his seminal work "The Neurotic Constitution" (1912) and establishing individual psychology as an influential school within these fields.
