Description: | DES MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) This is Mackintosh's version of a table he designed for the drawing room of 14 Kingsborough Gardens, Glasgow, for Mrs Rowat. In the early 1900s, Mackintosh designed a number of variations of oval-top tables, with plain surfaces, inlays, and multiple legs. The legs here are of particular interest: plank-shaped, set at an angle to align with the curve of the top, and pierced and set with a sculptural stylised leaf. The image shows the item on public display in The Mackintosh House at the Hunterian Art Gallery. | 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: | FURNITURE : DECORATIVE ART : OVAL TABLE : DRAWING ROOM : 120 MAINS STREET, GLASGOW : : 78 SOUTHPARK AVENUE, GLASGOW : 6 FLORENTINE TERRACE, GLASGOW : 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 |
