Anton Mauve was a member of the group of artists known as the Hague School. He influenced his cousin-in-law, Vincent van Gogh in his work and style. Van Gogh looked up to Mauve and mentioned him in over a hundred letters as a major influence in his work. Many of Mauve’s most paintings are of peasant scenes working in the fields. Mauve died suddenly at just 49 years old. His paintings are held extensively in Europe, Holland, The UK, and in Paris, as well as in America in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Art in Boston, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
