Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his Impact on Some Czech Architects of the Viennese School
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to present Charles Rennie Mackintosh as the most influential Scottish architect and leading figure of the Art Nouveau period and one of the founding figures of the Modernist movement. Although he was not fully appreciated in hisown country, his impact on the Continent cannot be overlooked. He was especially warmly accepted in Vienna and his influence can be seen in the work of some architects of the Viennese architectural circle. This paper attempts to present his sources of inspiration and some similarities and parallels between his work and the work of some Czech architects who studied in Vienna in the architectural school of Otto Wagner, and to show that besides the whole European movement sharing similar sources of inspiration, Mackintosh himself became one such source of inspiration for many architects in Central Europe. It will be pointed out that there was a similarity of artistic expression between Mackintosh and some of them.
