Glasgow School

Either of two distinct groups of Scottish artists. The earlier of the two groups, also known as the Glasgow Boys, was a loose association of late-19th-century artists influenced by the Barbizon School and Impressionism. Leading members were James Guthrie and John Lavery. The later, more important group was part of the art nouveau movement, and included Charles Rennie Mackintosh.
