William Strang, R.A., R.E.
A Disturber of Traffic

1900

About the Item

Binyon 396 - A fine impression in fine condition in an edition of 20 signed and inscribed by the artist. Strang was a prolific printmaker and across his lifetime produced over 750 original prints. He worked mostly in etching, but experimented with other techniques including drypoint, mezzotint, lithography, aquatint, woodcut and engraving. As a printmaker, he produced one of the most original and varied bodies of etched work by any Scottish artist of the period. He was a key figure in bringing about an international revival of interest in original printmaking during the late-nineteen and early twentieth-century and, in 1904, was one of the founding members of the Society of Twelve, a group of artists (which included fellow Scots David Young Cameron and Muirhead Bone), committed to this revival. Although he went on to achieve great recognition as a painter, printmaking remained central to Strang’s work until his death.
