Minna Bernays was the younger sister of Martha Bernays, Sigmund Freud's wife, and she spent many years living within the Freud household in Vienna, where she helped run the home and became a constant presence in the family's daily life. Her role was that of a relative and companion rather than a public figure, which makes portraits of her uncommon in collections like this one. The print comes from the Sigmund Freud Archives, a source that gathered family and personal images, and its caption card lacks a date, so the sitter's appearance is best read alongside what is known of her place in the household. She remained close to the family through its move to London in 1938.
