Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh
Most people in Scotland, and particularly in Glasgow, are well aware of the artistic and architectural importance of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his influence over generations of other artists, designers and architects. Many will also be aware of his part in The Glasgow Four, or at least recognise that name, but is it reasonable to assume that it is less widely known that another one of The Four was his wife, Margaret? Or that the other female member was her younger sister, Frances?
