Long Live Our Noble King: A Tribute to Captain Joseph Simpson, RBA, Royal Flying Corps, Official War Artist to the RAF in 1918 This evocative portrait captures the resolute gaze and unwavering determination of Captain Joseph Simpson, RBA (Royal Birmingham Society of Artists), Royal Flying Corps, as he served his country as an Official War Artist to the RAF during World War I in 1918. Born in 1879, Simpson's artistic talents were recognized early on, and his works have become an essential historical record of the First World War. The image of Simpson, dressed in his military uniform, is a testament to the courage and dedication of the men and women who served during this pivotal period in history. The backdrop of the portrait, adorned with the insignia of the Royal Flying Corps, further emphasizes Simpson's role as a vital contributor to the war effort. As an Official War Artist, Simpson was entrusted with documenting the daily life and experiences of the military personnel. His works offer a unique perspective into the realities of war, providing a valuable historical record for future generations. This portrait, with its solemn expression and unyielding gaze, serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Captain Simpson during the Great War. The image is a poignant tribute to the noble spirit of those who answered the call to serve, and a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and preserve history. Captured in this portrait is not only the image of a brave and dedicated military officer but also the spirit of resilience and determination that defined the era. The portrait is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the importance of preserving the history of this pivotal period in human history.
