Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum,
Glasgow
Since a fire devastated much of the
work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh
at the Glasgow School of Art,
Kelvingrove Art Gallery and
Museum has become the primary
destination for admirers of the
Glasgow Style, a distinctive part of
the Arts & Crafts movement and Art
Nouveau styles of the early 20th
century.
