The story of Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh, and why the wife of architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh deserves equal recognition
Manage episode 386918132 series 2887481
While Charles Rennie Mackintosh has become a singular icon in Scottish art, his legacy is so almighty that in many accounts, the achievements and contributions of his wife, Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh, are often overlooked.
Described by Charles as being “more than half – she is three quarters – of all I’ve done”, Margaret’s artwork, and her place in the Glasgow art scene, deserve their own glory. In particular, Margaret’s involvement in the designing of the National Trust for Scotland’s property, the Hill House, gives us a key insight into her own unique artistic style and the importance of her contributions to Scottish architecture.
This week, Jackie speaks to expert Robyne Calvert about Margaret’s life and legacy.
