Etching and drypoint with false biting, ca. 1912, David Strang 679 vii/vii, 253 x 354 mm. A very fine impression, printed with plate tone on imperial japan paper with full margins and signed in pencil by the artist. The grim, austere bulk of the Castel Nuovo, skirted here by patchwork wooden fences, finds itself appropriately reflected in the rather grim and certainly austere style of Strang's vision and etching technique. As of May of this year, it was again surrounded by patchwork wooden fences (for street work) and looks much the same but for the now incessant automotive traffic and the thousands of people rushing past it. Strang's was a quieter time. The later prints of Strang are not often seen these days, particularly as signed by him rather than by his son.
