Known worldwide for his architecture and interior designs, Charles
Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) was also an extremely gifted painter.
Towards the end of his life, he gave up his principal career as an
architect and moved to the south of France where he devoted himself
to painting in watercolour. Meticulously executed and brilliantly
coloured, these landscape watercolours are conceived with a sense
of design and an eye for pattern in nature, which owes much to his
brilliance as an architect and designer. This book charts
Mackintosh's time in France and explores his career as a landscape
painter, placing his work in the context of the modern movement.
The forty-four paintings Mackintosh is known to have completed
while in France are illustrated, and are supported by documentary
photographs of the places he painted as well as extracts from his
letters written to his wife and friends. This new, revised edition
of an enduringly popular title on one of Scotland's best-loved
artists contains a new foreword by the Director General of the
National Galleries of Scotland, Sir John Leighton, and will feature
a new cover design, updated to feature the popular flexicover
binding.
