The Art of Inkblots - The Man Behind the Rorschach Test

His inkblots are world famous. We tell his story: Hermann Rorschach.

In the early 20th century, Rorschach developed a projective psychological test that would shape psychiatry worldwide after his death. Today, his ten iconic inkblots are still used in the same form in the testing process to gain insight into patients' personalities. The Rorschach test is a result of its time, with influences from the directions of psychology at the time. Over the years, the test became pop culture and it has been trivialized to an extent. In meetings with Rorschach experts, we take a closer look at the design aspects of the boards. In the process, we also learn more about the artistic talents of the young and promising doctor.
