Description: | RH DES MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) During 1920 Mackintosh received commissions from the artists Harold Squire, Arthur Cadogan Blunt and Francis Derwent Wood for adjacent studios in a contiguous site near Mackintosh's own studio in Chelsea. The site fronted onto Glebe Place, and overlooked the grounds of the recently demolished Cheyne House. For the sculptor Wood, Mackintosh designed a large, simple building in a farmhouse vernacular, in the style favoured by Arts and Crafts architects before the First World War. On the ground floor, Mackintosh placed a sculptor's studio and workshop, lit by a large window. On the upper floors were painters' studios, including a separate entry. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | ELEVATION : STUDIO : CHELSEA PERIOD : ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN : DERWENT WOOD, FRANCIS : GLEBE PLACE : CRM ONLINE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
