I must confess I knew nothing about Margaret McDonald. No one ever spoke of her in Art History class… But I am glad to have discovered her and happy to bring her to your attention as well. She belonged to the School of Glasgow and was a modernist and a symbolist painter. Although the group was a small one, composed of her husband, her sister and another artist, they were greatly influential and became the epicentre of Modern Style, what is called Art Nouveau in France. She was born in Tipton, UK in 1864 or 1865 and she died in 1933 in London. She studied art at the Glasgow School of Arts after her family moved there.

Here are some of her works…
