David Strang

Also known as: David Strang; primary name: Strang, David; other name: Strang, David Rogerson
Details: individual; printmaker; British; Male
Life dates: 1887-1967
Biography: Portrait painter, etcher and plate printer. Born in Dumbarton, younger son of the artist William Strang (q.v.) and brother of Ian Strang. Studied at Glasgow University. Exhibited once at the Royal Academy. He is known particularly for cataloguing his father's work and printing his plates. As a plate printer he worked for many other artists, including Laura Knight (q.v.) and posthumously for Walter Sickert (q.v.). He presented 600 impressions of his father's work to Glasgow Art Gallery in 1955 and others to the British Museum. He gave the BM first refusal as a gift of his own collection of prints (mostly printed by himself), and these are registered as 1960,0409.116 to 660. A ms list is in the P&D library, and gives the complete list with a note of items that were not wanted being duplicates.
