Description: | RH s. and inscr. in pencil b.r. "Chas R Mackintosh / 120 Mains Street / Blythswood Square Glasgow"; inscribed with various other notes and measuremens DES MACKINTOSH, Charles Rennie; (Scottish; 1868-1928) In 1905 leading architects were asked to submit designs for the A.S. Ball exhibit in Berlin. Among those selected were the leading German architect, Joseph Maria Olbrich and Mackintosh. Mackintosh's design for a dining room was an L-shaped plan with furniture stylistically based on the tables and chairs he had created for The Willow Tea Rooms in 1903. The decorative scheme was dark, with papered walls and the motif of the square. This plan shows the principal table and chairs, as well as a small table in the alcove. The completed room had a smaller table and fewer chairs. | 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 DESIGN : DINING ROOM : BALL, A.S. : 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 |
