text:
Edward Smyth was an Irish sculptor. The son of a stonecutter, Smyth was born in Meath, Ireland. He was employed by Henry Darley, who was in turn an employee of James Gandon. By this connection, Smyth met Gandon, who was greatly impressed with his work. Gandon employed Smyth as the sculptor to the Custom House, as well as for all of his Dublin projects. These included the Four Courts, the Irish House of Lords, and King's Inns. In 1787, Smyth completed statues to his own design above the Westmorel
