Miller, Archibald E Haswell
Design for the Grand Hall, Glasgow International Exhibition, 1901
The competition, held in 1898, was won by the Glasgow architect James Miller with a considerably more ornate design for a 'bit of Spanish baroque confectionery' (McLaren Young). Like Miller's, Mackintosh's design derives from James Sellars' for the 1888 Glasgow exhibition, but simplified. 'The dome, perhaps a prerequisite for Glasgow exhibitions, remained, but it was presented with severe geometricality, with an Art Nouveau lantern surmounted by a Chinese coolie hat.'
Mackintosh, Charles Rennie
Menu for Miss Cranston's exhibition cafe, The White Cockade
The design lists the principal suppliers used by Miss Cranston in her exhibition cafe. The right hand side of the design features a stylised female figure holding a red rose.
Mackintosh, Margaret Macdonald

This poster advertised an exhibition showcasing the work of The Glasgow Girls held in The Mackintosh Museum at The Glasgow School Of Art. The exhibition ran from the 15th of July to the 31st of August 1988 and was the precursor for a larger Glasgow Girls exhibition that would be shown two years later. This particular exhibition was curated by Jude Burkhauser who went on to write a full PhD on The Glasgow Girls.
