Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh (5 November 1864 – 7 January 1933), was a notable artist and designer of gesso panels and metalwork. Margaret and her sister Frances were day students at the Glasgow School of Art, and worked together until Frances’s marriage to James Herbert MacNair and Margaret's marriage Charles Rennie Mackintosh, both prominent artists. Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Margaret Macdonald collaborated on many projects. Gesso panels designed by Macdonald for the Vienna Secession Exhibition 1900 Mackintosh room were hugely popular. Macdonald and Mackintosh were feted by their hosts and have been driven through the streets of Vienna in a rose bedecked wagon.

Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868—1928), Scottish architect and designer who was a leader of the Glasgow style in Great Britain. Although Mackintosh was nearly forgotten for several decades, the late 20th century saw a revival of interest in his work. The stark simplicity of his furniture designs, in particular, appealed to contemporary taste, and reproductions of Mackintosh chairs and settees began to be manufactured. The Mackintosh House in Glasgow was reconstructed and opened to the public as a museum in the late 1970s. In 2018 Mackintosh’s library for the Glasgow School of Art was severely damaged in a fire, just as the building’s restoration from a previous blaze four years earlier was nearing completion.
