Robert Enraght-Moony (1879-1946) was born in Athlone and was educated at Galway Grammar School and in Devon.
He was greatly influenced by the Symbolist style of Italian Post-Impressionist Giovanni Segantini, painting landscapes filled with symbolist themes that reflected his interest in Celtic folklore and mysticism.
During the 1890s he went to Paris where he studied under Jean-Paul Laurens (1838-1921). He exhibited widely at such prestigious institutions as the Royal Academy, New English Art Club and Royal Hibernian Academy.
He illustrated Kenneth Grahame's book, The Golden Age, in 1915.
