She exhibited in Chicago , London , Turin and Saint Louis in the 1890s and 1900s . The decoration of the Catholic Apostolic Church in Mansfield Place in Edinburgh helped to confirm this international recognition. The third daughter of a Dublin physician, Traquair attended the art school of the Royal Dublin Society and moved to Edinburgh following marriage to the Scottish palaeontologist Ramsay Heatley Traquair ( 1840 – 1912 ). The eldest of their three children, also Ramsay Traquair, became Professor and Director of the School of Architecture at McGill University , Montreal , in 1913 . REFERENCES
