Erik Lindberg

His father was a noted sculptor and professor at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts (Kungliga Akademien för de fria konsterna) in Stockholm.

He was influenced by modern French medal engravers of that period including Louis-Oscar Roty (1846–1911), Jules-Clément Chaplain (1839–1909), Ernest Paulin Tasset (1839–1921) and Frédéric-Charles-Victor de Vernon (1858–1912).

[3] In 1901 Lindberg was given the task of creating the medal for the Nobel Prizes in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine and Literature.

In November 1901, after lengthy discussions by letter, Lindberg returned to Stockholm to present his ideas in person.
