Summary

Mackintosh is a celebration of the extraordinary career of one of the most intriguing and influential artists of his time, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. This book follows his artistic development, from his early architectural and interior designs in Glasgow to his eventual withdrawal into landscape painting in the South of France.

Mackintosh was a man of daring vision, who mastered the decorative arts, architecture, design and painting with spirited determination and self-belief. Known internationally as the father of the ‘Glasgow Style’, he became a driving force behind a new approach to modern architecture and design, as well as the forerunner of Art Deco and the Modern Movement.

Author Biography

Tamsin Pickeral is a writer who specialises in books in books on art, animals and travel. Alongside her own books she has also been a major contributor to a number of multi-author art reference publications and exhibition catalogues. Her books are published internationally, and have been widely reviewed in leading newspapers and magazines.

Anne Ellis (foreword) is an architectural historian with a classical background, having first lectured on classical civilization then architecture and design at Glasgow University. She still does a few lectures every year for the university’s History of Art Department, in between writing articles and reviewing books. For 12 years she was the curator at The Hill House, Helensburgh, designed by Mackintosh, and describes her time there as ‘absolute heaven – like living inside a work of art!’. More recently an interest in broadcasting has developed into a regular slot presenting The Arts Show for Radio Scotland.
