Roses

"Roses" by Charles Rennie Mackintosh showcases his mastery as a water colourist and artist, blending his Scottish roots with influences from European Art nouveau (modern) style. The painting exemplifies his skill in Flower painting, capturing the delicate elegance of roses with stylized forms and intricate detailing. Mackintosh's approach aligns with the European Symbolism movement, emphasizing mood and symbolism over realism. His influence extended to design movements like Secessionism, and his work, along with his wife Margaret Macdonald, helped shape the Modern Style.
