Will Maclean was born in Inverness and much of his work concentrates on the history and mythology of the Highlands. The subject of the Highland Clearances, and the enforced emigration of the Highland peoples, has been a source for many of his creative projects. The Tanera Suite , consisting of four prints, is based on this theme. Tanera is one of the Summer Isles on the West Coast of Scotland.
The work was inspired by the steel engravings of William Daniell in the book A Voyage Round Great Britain Undertaken Between the Years 1813 and 1823 by Richard Ayton and William Daniell. Maclean was commissioned by the Peacock Printmakers, Aberdeen, to create an artwork associated with this classic text. The image of the man in 'The Departure' comes from the painting Lochaber No More by John Watson Nicol, about 1884.
