"Nellie Billsland" is a portrait etching by Scottish artist William Strang (1859–1921), who was known for his engravings, etchings, and portrait paintings. Strang, a prominent figure in the Glasgow School and a pupil of Alphonse Legros, was adept at capturing the character and essence of his subjects, often imbuing his works with a sense of psychological depth.

The etching of Nellie Billsland is a fine example of Strang's portraiture work, showcasing his skill in the medium of printmaking. Nellie Billsland was a model who sat for Strang and other artists of the time. In this particular piece, Strang's use of line and shadow brings forth the features and personality of Billsland, reflecting the artist's interest in the human condition and the exploration of individual identity.

Created during the late 19th or early 20th century, a period marked by a revival of interest in the etching technique among artists, "Nellie Billsland" exemplifies the renewed enthusiasm for etching's capacity for detail and expression. Strang's work is characterized by a blend of naturalism and symbolism, and his portraits often convey a narrative or emotional undercurrent that invites viewers to ponder the life and thoughts of the subject.

As with many of Strang's etchings, "Nellie Billsland" would have been produced in limited editions, making original impressions valuable for collectors of printmaking and Scottish art. The work is representative of Strang's contribution to the British etching revival and his legacy as a master etcher and influential figure in the British art scene of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
