Issued by the Republic of Austria in 1983, this 4-Schilling commemorative stamp honors the 8th World Congress of Psychiatry, held in Vienna. The design by H. Hofer features a concentric ring motif symbolizing the expanding reach of mental health science, with the Congress emblem — a red globe and stylized pulse line — at the center. The words “VIII. Weltkongress für Psychiatrie” encircle the emblem, highlighting Austria’s role as host to a global gathering of mental health professionals. A modernist design reflecting progress in psychiatry and international cooperation.
