A BRIEF HISTORY OF CHARLES RENNIE MACKINTOSH (1868 - 1928)

In late 19th-century Glasgow an exciting combination of industrial wealth and skills, artistic talent and enlightened patronage produced the climate that fostered a new movement in design and style, with Charles Rennie Mackintosh at its head.

The ‘Glasgow Style’ of the late 19th century was an idiosyncratic variation of Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts movement.

Mackintosh was an all round designer and his acclaimed willow and rose motifs were used throughout the interiors of one of his best known creations, Miss Cranston’s Tea Rooms.

He died in 1928 and has now become renowned worldwide for his distinctive repertoire of forms and motifs.
