Abstract
AN article by J. A. Sidney Stendall on museums in Scandinavia (Museums J., 38, 397, Nov. 1938) should prove of value to museum curators in Great Britain. The author selects for special description details of exhibition technique. His diagrams of methods of showing specimens, of artificial lighting, and of construction of exhibition cases for straightforward display or for the building up of pictorial dioramas, show how carefully and successfully these aspects have been considered in the museums of Sweden. There are suggestions here the adoption of which would add interest to many museums in Great Britain.
