Colourists set to collect £1m

A collection of works by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Scottish Colourists is to go on sale in the Capital in September.

Valued at upwards of 
£1 million, the works belonged to the late US media magnate Donald 
L Taffner, who died last year.

John Mackie, director at auctioneer Lyon & Turnbull, said: “We are honoured to have been chosen to sell the collection.”
