'Mackintosh In Miniature' At Glasgow Museum

Posted September 1st, 2007 by ruzik_tuzik

The work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, architectural genius and Glaswegian icon, is explored in a new way at a fascinating exhibition at Glasgow Museums.

Mackintosh in Miniature: Doll's House Delights features two meticulously detailed doll's houses conjured up from the makers' imagination and their research into the work, life and times of Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

The exhibition focuses on two extraordinary gifts to Glasgow's civic collection: a Mackintosh house with richly furnished and decorated interiors from 6 Florentine Terrace, Glasgow; The Hill House, Helensburgh, and 78 Derngate, Northampton created by Margaret and Michael Hartley; and a recreation of Mackintosh's Ladies' Luncheon Room for Miss Catherine Cranston's Ingram Street Tearooms, made by the North Glasgow Dolls House and Teddy Bear Club. -- www.glasgowmuseums.com
