Robert Strange (engraver)
Sir Robert Strange (1721–1792) was a Scottish engraver. A Jacobite, he spent periods out of Great Britain, but was eventually reconciled to the Hanoverian succession and was knighted by George III.
==Early life==
The eldest son of David Strang of Kirkwall in Orkney, by his second wife Jean, daughter of Malcolm Scollay of Hunton, he was born at Kirkwall on 14 July 1721. He entered the office of an elder brother, a lawyer in Edinburgh. He then was apprenticed to Richard Cooper the elder, the engraver, for six years.
Strange fought in the rebellion of 1745. While with the army at Inverness he engraved a plate for the bank-notes of the coming Stuart dynasty. He was at the battle of Prestonpans and battle of Falkirk Muir in the Young Pretender's lifeguards; and was in hiding for some months after the Battle of Culloden.〔
