Simcock only died last year and this is far from typical of his output. He is best known for brooding pictures of bleak cottages on bleak hillsides around Staffordshire and the village of Mow Cop, where he lived. This later piece is perhaps typical, with the cottages shown from below so they appear very exposed and with the colours pretending to be monochrome when in truth they are anything but.
