Simpson was born in Carlisle and studied art at Glasgow School of Art. He became a close friend of D.Y. Cameron and was elected RBA in 1909. Simpson designed covers for Edinburgh publishers and was a prolific designer of bookplates. In 1918 he became an official war artist for the RAF and was stationed in France. Simpson was already forty-five when he took up etching in 1925, at the height of the boom period for the medium. His first twenty or so plates were etched with a gramophone needle and printed by the artist himself on the small press lent to him by a local Carlisle printing firm. His first exhibition of etchings took place in Glasgow at Wishart Brown in March 1926. His friend Frank Brangwyn wrote the catalogue introduction. A second highly successful show was staged in November 1926 by Alex, Reid and Lefevre in London. Simpson exhibited in Munich, Venice, Florence & Stockholm.

Rembrandt Pinx.t. Pether delin.t. S.F. Ravenet Sculpsit 1767.
Published March 25.th 1767 by J. Boydell, Engraver, in Cheapside, London.
Engraving. 520 x 430mm (20½ x 17)". Very large margins.
After a painting of 'The Labourers in the Vineyard' bought as a Rembrandt by the Frankfurter Kunstverein. The painting is still in the Frankfurt Städel Museum, although it has most recently been attributed to the circle of Ferdinand Bol (1616-80), a pupil and follower of Rembrandt. Number 39 from "The Most Capital Paintings in England", a series of engravings in five volumes published from the late 1760s to 1786 (although the first three originally published as 'Sculptura Britannica'). These were a critical and financial success for the publisher John Boydell (later a Lord Major of London) and helped establish a tradition for collecting prints in Britain.

Lord Thomas and Fair Annett.
H. Bunbury Esqr,, Delint: Engraved by F. Bartolozzi.
London, Published Novr; 22d; 1784 by W. Dickinson Engraver & Printseller No.158 New Bond Street.
Stipple and etching, published state, sheet 405 x 360mm. 16 x 14¼". Trimmed to plate, repaired tear left..
Illustration in a roundel of the folk ballad 'Lord Thomas and Fair Annett': Lord Thomas leaning forward in a chair to left, one hand on his sword, handing a rose with the other to Annette, who sits opposite, petting a dog at her side. The nut-brown maid, new married to Lord Thomas, runs forward with a dagger to stab her rival in jealousy. Lord Thomas is in love with Fair Annet, or Annie, or Elinor, but she has little property. He asks for advice. His father, mother, and brother (or some of them) advise that he should marry the nut-brown maid with a rich dowry. His mother promises to curse him if he marries Annet and bless him if he marries the nut-brown maid, and Lord Thomas takes his mother's advice. Fair Annet dresses as splendidly as she can and goes to the wedding. The nut-brown maid is so jealous that she stabs Annet to death. Lord Thomas stabs both the nut-brown maid and himself to death. A rose grew from Fair Annet's grave, a brier from Lord Thomas's, and they grew together. After Henry William Bunbury (1750 - 1811).
