DescriptionBorn in Dublin, Mary Swanzy travelled widely through Eastern Europe, the Balkans, Hawaii and Samoa. She developed a vibrant style influenced by Cubism or Orphism, a branch of Cubism that embraced vivid colour. After Mary Swanzy returned to Dublin, in 1932 Sarah Purser mounted an exhibition of her work in her home, Mespil House.
