The Glasgow School of Art





Mackintosh's masterpiece is a difficult building to photograph. The front with those vast windows faces north, the rear facade is obscured by later buildings; awesome drops on the east and west sides defy attempts to show scale. As usual with CRM, the details are beautiful - the railings and street lamps, the long drop protruding windows on the east side contrasting with the inset windows round the corner on the south facade.
