Description: | RU inscr. in pencil t.r. "WAREHAM/DUKE OF WELLINGTON INN/CASTLE INN" ; inscr. in pencil b.r. "12" [not by Mackintosh] CRE MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) In the early summer of 1895 Mackintosh made his second documented sketching trip to England, visiting Hampshire, Dorset and Somerset. Mackintosh was captivated with Wareham in Dorset, a pretty little town favoured by artists. In 'The British Architect' Mackintosh wrote, "Every inn has its overhanging sign of wrought iron, somewhat curly undoubtedly, but yet characteristic of the place." He stayed at the Red Lion, which he described as "ideal in every way - very small, very homely, everything quaint and delightful" | 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: | WAREHAM : INN SIGNS : SKETCH : ARCHITECTURAL SKETCH : CRM ONLINE : DORSET : | 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 |
