"W.S. MOYES DELT."; inscr. on verso "School Board Building / Scotland Street / drawing by C.R.M." DES MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) Scotland Street School was designed in 1903 within the stringent limitations of school board requirements and costing. A co-educational school, it required for example separate entrances for boys, girls and infants. Built of red sandstone over three storeys, it contained twenty-one classrooms. The front elevation is dominated by the twin staircase bays. Internally, Mackintosh created airy spaces, using simple white glazed tiling to face walls and piers in the circulation and cloakroom areas. This perspective drawing was made to Mackintosh's specification by W.S. Moyes. | 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: | ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN : SCOTLAND STREET SCHOOL : PERSPECTIVE : DRAWING : 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 |
