Biographische Notiz: Emil Lüthy was born on 13th March 1890 in Basle where he went to school. He was a cousin of Emil Oberholzer, with whom he had a fairly close relationship. According to his own statements he was afflicted from his early youth with health problems. He seemingly was interested both in medicine and art, but precise information on his career is scarce. In various obituaries he is stated to have gone, after school leaving examinations qualifying for university in 1911, to Munich where he allegedly studied for three years. It is, however, unclear what sort of studies they were. At any rate in the student directory of the University of Munich of that time one cannot find his name. After returning to Basle shortly before the outbreak of World War I he attended until 1915 painting classes conducted by Hermann Meyer (1878-1961). For further education in painting he is said to have been in Italy, Vienna and Paris. In all likelihood influenced by Emil Oberholzer he became intrigued by psychoanalysis. From a letter from Oscar Pfister to Emil Oberholzer from 29th March 1920 we learn that Lüthy was in psychoanalysis with Oscar Pfister in 1919. He numbered among the first members of the Swiss Psycho-Analytical Society established in the same year, holding from 1920 onwards the position of treasurer. On the register of members he is listed as painter showing that he considered himself as such. Having been in psychoanalysis with Freud in 1923 he later was approached by Kurt Eissler, director of the Sigmund Freud Archives, for a recollection of his experience with Freud. As can be proven he studied medicine from 1924 to 1927 at the university in Zurich, where he lived with Emil and Mira Oberholzer. Thereafter he seems to have turned exclusively to painting. The emigration of Emil and Mira Oberholzer to USA in 1938 meant an important loss for Lüthy. The same is true with regard to his friend Frederic S. Weil, who also emigrated to USA, where he became a well known psychoanalyst. In 1920 Rorschach asked Emil Lüthy for advice in connection with the differentiation of talents according to introversive and extratensive features. Seeking a better understanding of the role of certain colours in the context of his introversion-extratension scheme he turned again to him in 1922. Moreover Lüthy provided Rorschach with test records of persons of his acquaintance for evaluation. Inhaltsangabe: The small fonds includes among other things correspondence with Rorschach and drawings relating to Rorschach’s test.https://swisscollections.ch/Record/991170539044005501 (Katalogeintrag in swisscollections)
