A bold tribute to the Dear Green Place and Industrial Giant of the River Clyde where Glasgow, Scotland's largest city and the fourth-largest city in the United Kingdom, takes its name from the Brittonic words for Dear Green Place, the ancient settlement on the banks of the River Clyde where Saint Mungo founded a monastery in the 6th century, and where the city that grew from this modest ecclesiastical origin became in the 19th century one of the most powerful industrial cities in the world, the Second City of the British Empire, where the Clyde shipyards of John Brown, Fairfield, and Harland and Wolff launched the greatest ships in the world including the Lusitania, the Queen Mary, and the Queen Elizabeth, where Glasgow's Victorian legacy of municipal pride is expressed through its extraordinary collection of free public museums including the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, the Burrell Collection, and the Riverside Museum of Transport, and where Glasgow's vibrant contemporary cultural identity, expressed through its world-class music scene, its Merchant City arts quarter, the architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh whose Glasgow School of Art and Willow Tea Rooms created a uniquely Scottish contribution to Art Nouveau, and its designation as the first UNESCO City of Music in the UK, makes it one of the most culturally energetic cities in Britain.
