One of the endpapers for the books we publish next month is by  Charles Rennie Mackintosh. So it seemed the right moment to celebrate his incredible but rarely seen textile designs – and then reveal the one we are using. This is a watercolour called Basket of Flowers, like all of them it’s undated but is thought to have been designed around 1916-18 and, like several other designs, is based on fairly free watercolours of bouquets of cut flowers.
