Abstract

The female nude in photography has a complex history in Freud's Vienna. This paper examines photographic images of nude women and girls in the published art-historical studies of classical sculpture. Books on the "sciences" of health and well-being by authors like Carl Heinrich Stratz and Paul Schultze-Naumberg reproduced many photographs of nude women and children, especially young girls. Such visual material comes to bear on Freud's case-history of "Dora" as well as other contemporary writings on psychoanalysis.
