A watercolor shows a Persian wheel near Amritsar. Two men stand beside it. One leans on the wheel’s wooden frame. The other kneels by a channel of water. Simpson worked fast. He used quick pencil sketches to plan this scene. Later he turned them into watercolors in his studio. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more of his work.
