William Rogers (born c. 1545, active c. 1589–1604) was an English engraver. A Citizen of the City of London – one of his surviving engravings is signed Anglus et Civis Lond(oniensis). – he is the first English craftsman known to have practised engraving and the greatest portrait engraver of the Tudor period. The English were extremely late in coming to printmaking, though several artists from the thriving Flemish industry had worked in England already; the engraved print had been invented over 150 years before Rogers began to produce them. Rogers was also a goldsmith, and presumably acquired his technique in that context. His portrait style reflects Flemish models, while his backgrounds are often "overloaded with ornament" that is "redolent of the goldsmith's shop".

  • William Rogers (* um 1545; † um 1605) war ein englischer Kupferstecher. Rogers war der erste Engländer, der einen bedeutenden Beitrag zur Kunst der Graphik leistete. Wahrscheinlich erlernte er sein Handwerk in den Niederlanden. Er war wegen seiner Porträts und Titelbilder bekannt. Rogers schuf die Bildnisse vieler wichtiger politischer Persönlichkeiten seiner Zeit, wie Königin Elisabeth I. Tudor, Robert Devereux, 2. Earl of Essex und des französischen König Heinrich IV. (de)
