A decorative panel in gesso, tempera and glass on jute, made by Margaret
Macdonald Mackintosh in 1900 for the Ingram Street tea rooms in Glasgow.
It is now held in the Glasgow Museums collections.
The May Queen stands in the centre with two attendants, all of them
against a background of vertical stems and stylised roses. The panel
defines the Glasgow Style, the British branch of Art Nouveau, plainer
and more geometric than the French or Belgian versions, and the one that
went on to influence Klimt and the Vienna Secession after they exhibited
together in 1900.
