John Keeley Halswelle studied at the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh, and in 1862 made his debut at the Royal Academy in London where he continued to exhibit for next thirty years. Although the artist’s early work primarily consists of English or Scottish scenes, his first trip to Italy in 1869 resulted in a series of spectacular landscapes and subject pictures set in Rome, Naples, and Venice.

Keeley Halswelle was elected an Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy in 1866, and the following year he became a founder member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters.

Between 1862 and Keeley Halswelle exhibited at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, the Grosvenor Gallery, the Royal Watercolour Society, and the New Gallery in London. Today, works by Keeley Halswelle can be found in the collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate Britain, and the Guildhall Art Gallery in London, the Walker Gallery in Liverpool, Russell-Cotes Museum, and Leeds Art Gallery among many others.
