Questions About Wpa Art Charles
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    No, Charles Rennie Mackintosh is generally not considered Art Deco. His early work is usually categorized as Art Nouveau and provided a source of inspiration for Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser and other members of the Vienna Secession movement, which is closely related to the Art Nouveau movement. Pieces produced later in the Scottish designer's career, such as those from the Italian firm Cassina, show off the characteristics of mid-century modern design. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of Charles Rennie Mackintosh furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024
