Anton Mauve
Kingdom of the Netherlands, 1838–1888
Anton Mauve was a Kingdom of the Netherlands Impressionism painter. 47 works are cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum, most of them oil paintings. Anton Mauve was born in Zaandam.
Anthonij "Anton" Rudolf Mauve (Dutch pronunciation:; 18 September 1838 – 5 February 1888) was a Dutch realist painter who was a leading member of the Hague School. He signed his paintings 'A. Mauve' or with a monogrammed 'A.M.'. A master colorist, he was a very significant early influence on his cousin-in-law Vincent van Gogh.
His best-known paintings depict peasants working in the fields. His paintings of flocks of sheep were especially popular with American patrons, so popular that a price differential developed between scenes of "sheep coming" and "sheep going".
