Joseph Simpson signed in pencil.
n.d. 1930.
Etching. 300 x 215mm.
Simpson, Joseph. 1879-1939. Painter and etcher of portraits and sporting subjects. He 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 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. (Print Collectors Quarterly 1932 )

Very rare mezzotint. 130 x 115mm (5 x 4½"). Trimmed to image and laid on card. Some creases.
Jane Shore (c.1445-1527), mistress to Edward IV. Thomas More’s 'History of King Richard III' quotes Edward IV's claim to have had three concubines, ‘the merriest, the wiliest, and the holiest harlots in his realm’, Shore being the merriest. She enjoyed a considerable literary afterlife, as the subject of poems, ballads, historical novels, and plays; the most notable of the latter was Nicholas Rowe's Tragedy of Jane Shore, first produced in 1714. This is a copy of an anonymous painting in King's College, Cambridge, of which there is a near-identical painting at Eton College.

Stipple engraving with etching, scratched letter proof before title, 189 x 138mm. Light foxing.
Jane Shore (c. 1445 - c. 1527) was one of the many mistresses of King Edward IV, the first of the three whom he described respectively as the merriest, the wiliest, and the holiest harlots in his realm. A petite woman of round face and fair complexion, she was more captivating by her wit and conversation than by her beauty, yet she was comely, too. Thomas More, writing when she was still alive, but old, lean, and withered, declared that even then an attentive observer might have discerned in her shriveled countenance some traces of its lost charms. Fine and rare proof copy with scratched publication line before title.

A crowd gathers at Shoreham-by-Sea railway station and along the cliffs waving at two steam trains. The original Shoreham station was a terminus built by the London and Brighton Railway and was opened on 11th May 1840. However it was demolished in 1845 when the Brighton and Chichester Railway opened its line to Worthing railway station. Both railways merged with others in July 1846 to become the London Brighton and South Coast Railway.

A scene showing a mother and her children looking at a peep show while the showman stands to the left. From 'The Costume of Great Britain', a book containing 60 plates of people at work and scenes of everyday life. William Henry Pyne (1769-1843), the son of a London weaver who became an artist and writer, was commissioned to write and illustrate the book by the publisher, William Miller of Albermarle Street, London. The illustrations are particularly notable as they portray British life on the eve of the Industrial Revolution.
