M201 Scottish section for the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative Art, Turin

Mackintosh was invited by Francis H. ('Fra') Newbery, director of the Glasgow School of Art and organiser of the Scottish Section of the exhibition, to draw up an overall design scheme for the suite of three spaces allocated inside the exhibition building by Italian architect Raimondo D'Aronco. Mackintosh also designed display cases for the applied art. One of the three spaces was dedicated to the work of Mackintosh and Margaret Macdonald; in one half of this they installed 'The Rose Boudoir'.

Authorship: Contemporary sources describe Mackintosh as designer of the 'Scottish Section' and, with Macdonald, of the Rose Boudoir.
