Ingenio et arti (from Latin: for science and art) is a Danish civil award given to prominent Danish and foreign scholars and artists. The honor, a personal decoration of the monarch , was brought into being by King Christian VIII in 1841 and could be bestowed on women as well as men; early recipients were e.g. B. Bertha Wegmann in 1892 and Emilie Ulrich in 1917. The name affix to the award is "Mi & a."

The medal is awarded irregularly, on average less than twice a year. The French historian and translator Charles-Henri Ternaux-Compans received the first medal on December 1, 1841 . The latest recipient (as of 2013) is Hans Edvard Nørregård-Nielsen , art historian, writer and chairman of the New Carlsberg Foundation until 2013 . Other winners are the artists Anna Ancher and Bjørn Nørgaard , the writer Karen Blixen and the ballet dancer Kirsten Simone.
