Kilcreggan 1897

"Kilcreggan" is an etching by William Strang dating back to 1897. This print depicts a rural scene with a cluster of modest houses and a large tree partially obscuring the structures. The artist employs a simple, yet expressive, style with stark black lines against a light background, creating a strong sense of depth and space. The composition is balanced, with the houses nestled in the middle ground and a rolling hillside receding into the distance. Strang's work is known for its powerful lines and atmospheric quality, and "Kilcreggan" is a fine example of his ability to capture the essence of a place through the medium of etching.
