Charles Rennie Mackintosh's Italy

En savoir plus sur le livre

In 1890 the 22 year old Charles Rennie Mackintosh won the Alexander Thompson Travelling Studentship which enabled young architects to make a three-month tour to study Ancient Classic Architecture. Mackintosh's chosen tour of Italy is one of the best-documented periods of his career in terms of primary sources as he kept a diary which forms the basis of the book's narrative. This new book is illustrated with his drawings, sketches, watercolours from the tour as well as contemporary photographs. It includes a full listing of the 200 or so CRM sketches etc. from the tour.
