Glasgow School of Art Fire

This really has been a tragedy for not just Glasgow but Scotland and wider. One of our finest buildings has been ravaged by fire and the original library interior been completely destroyed. Fortunately no one was injured. Although not that anytime would have been good for such a tragic event, the timing leading up to the Commonwealth Games when Glasgow will be in the world spotlight makes this even more poignant. I have added these archival scans derived from medium format transparencies as a reminder of the glory that is this building.
