When the Senate was dissolved in 1936, it was presented to the Royal Irish Academy.[4] Newland Smith reviewed the casket, described Cranwill was a "designer and craftswoman who understands the national Irish style and can interpret it, create anew within it, and add to the old and delightful forms a personality and expression quite new" ...
