imagern.

Brit.

/ˈɪmᵻdʒə/, U.S.

/ˈɪmᵻdʒər/

Forms: Middle English ymageour, Middle English ymageoure, Middle English ymagour, Middle English–1500s ymager, Middle English– imager, 1600s imageur.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on French lexical items. Etymons: image n., -er suffix¹; image v., -er suffix¹.

Etymology: < image n. + -er suffix¹, partly after Middle French imageur, ymageur producer of (solid or flat) images (1359; < image image n. + -eur -eur suffix), and partly after Middle French imagier, ymagier, ymager (French imagier ) producer of (solid or flat) images (13th cent. in Old French; < image image n. + -ier -ier suffix). In later use partly also < image v. + -er suffix¹.Earlier currency of the word is perhaps implied by the surname Alexander le Ymagour (1305), although it is unclear whether this should be interpreted as reflecting the Middle English word or an (apparently otherwise unattested) Anglo-Norman equivalent. Similarly, it is uncertain whether the following example should be interpreted as showing an earlier attestation of the word in Middle English:1334 Court Husting, London (City of London Rec. Office: CLA/023/DW/01/62(6)) Gilbertus de Kelseye ymaiour.

a. A producer of solid images; a sculptor, carver, etc. Now chiefly historical.
