Description
Now available in a paperback edition, this beautifully illustrated volume remains the first comprehensive work to examine turn-of-the-century architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh's crowning achievement--the Glasgow School of Art. Meticulously compiled by fine-art and architecture staff members of the Glasgow School, the book includes 200 color and black-and-white photographs documenting the landmark building's innovative structure and decoration, including the remarkable furniture Mackintosh designed specifically for the interior. Seven essays by some of the world's foremost architectural historians complete this exceptional volume. Architects and designers, as well as the ever-growing audience for the Arts and Crafts movement, will find this both an invaluable guide and a stunning tribute to an extraordinary artist.
