Abstract
DR. STOLPE was asked to arrange and describe the Ethnographical Exhibition of Stockholm in the year 1878. This exhibition was brought together from all, or at least nearly all, Swedish public and private collections; no less than 217 exhibitors with about 10,000 objects participated, the King himself opened the galleries, and general interest was raised by an ethnographical exhibition as indeed no other country has realised till now. We took occasion to visit the exhibition, and were astonished to see so rich a material, as well as a thoroughly scientific arrangement.
