The life & career of Sir Austen Chamberlain (1863-1937).
Commentary: Chamberlain was a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize back when such was a laudable achievement. He did not win it simply for being Sir Austen Chamberlain (as was the case with President Obama), but for the diplomatic triumph of the Treaty of Locarno (1925).
This photograph of the Nobel Peace Prize is anachronistic, as that is not what the medal looked like in 1926, but is used here because it is a very nice, well composed image.
