FEATURED WEB PAGE: OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES MEDALS

This week's Featured Web Page is about the Olympic Winter Games medals, from 1924 to date. It's from the site of the Olympic organizing committee.

This document looks at the evolution of the Olympic Winter Games medals, from the first Games in Chamonix in 1924 to those in Sochi in 2014. Each medal is presented with a photo of its obverse and reverse, with a description of the design and the technical details available.

Taking a journey from the first Winter Games to the start of the 21st century using the emblematic Olympic medals is a fascinating artistic and cultural experience.
