Mary Swanzy took classes at the RHA and Metropolitan School of Art in her home town of Dublin before travelling to Paris to work in various artists’ studios.
Although mainly based in Dublin in her early career, she spent much of her time travelling around Eastern Europe and North America. In 1926 she moved to
London but continued to show in Ireland at the Dawson Gallery and Royal Hibernian Academy, and in 1949 was elected an Honorary Member of the RHA.
