More Description

This address book, spiral bound inside a hard cover, includes full-color pictures of many works of art by renowned Scottish artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928), as well as dozens of pages for names and addresses. There is also an introduction to Mackintosh and his art. Mackintosh had trained as an architect but was also an accomplished artist, particularly in watercolor. As an architect he wished to be responsible for all the elements of a project -- furniture, carpets, wall decorations, light fittings, even cutlery and tableware. This control gave his interiors an intensely personal and coherent appearance, creating works of art that continually crossed the thresholds between painting, architecture, and design. Durable covers.
