William Strang, R.A., R.E.
His Timmer Staff

1892

About the Item

"His Timmer Staff" is an image of herding pigs by William Strang. It is a fine impression in fine condition in an edition of 20 signed and inscribed by the artist. Binyon 119 One of twelve plates by William Strang illustrating his own ballad, Death and the Ploughman's Wife. The plates were made using a combination of etching, engraving and mezzotint in 1888, although the complete illustrated volume was not published until 1894, in an edition of 110 number copies. 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.
