whole world have all alike the right of proposing
those whom they may think most worthy the
honour. The " Nobel-Stiftelsen " is consequently
an essentially international institution, which,
no doubt, will in no small degree further the
efforts and endeavours in the interests of science,
culture, and humanity.
Every recipient of these prizes receives also in
commemoration a large gold medal, different for
all the classes mentioned above. The Swedish
medals are engraved by a quite young artist,
Mr. Erik Lindberg of Stockholm, who has shown
in the execution of them a very rare ability,
not only in regard to composition and artistic
workmanship, but also in the delicacy of ex-
pression and feeling of form in his modelling of
the subjects. The likeness of the donator is ex-
cellent. Mr. Lindberg was born in Stockholm,
1873, and has a very promising future before
him. He is a son of Professor Lindberg,
engraver of medals to the King of Sweden.
The Norwegian medal (for promoting peace
and fraternity) is the work of a young sculptor of
that country, Mr. Vigeland, who, during the last
"la derelitta" by d. trentacoste years, has made himself conspicuous as an ardent

medal proves, however, that the crude and forcible
the most eminent workers in the following ways and means of modern sculpture cannot be
branches of science : Physics and Chemistry, considered as altogether applicable in the deli-
both awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy cate art of medal engraving. Judged as sculpture
of Science ; and Physiology or Medicine, his work must, however, attract well deserved

Swedish Carolean Insti-

is awarded by the Royal
