While many of the paintings and statues produced by winners of the art competitions are no longer on public display, Gustaf Nordahl’s winning “Hyllning till Ling” (Homage to Ling) can still be seen outside the Gymnastics and Sports College in Östermalm, Stockholm. Second prize was won by an Indian sculptor, although Chintamoni Kar had adopted British citizenship and represented the host nation. Bronze medallist Hubert Yencesse was a member of a scultpuring family. His father, Ovide, was a noted medal-maker, while his brother Jacques and daughter Dodie were also sculptors.
