Comparison of the researched painting and Mauve's paintings

Our researched painting is definitely inspired by paintings of Anton Mauve in terms of composition and theme.

Anthonij (Anton) Rudolf Mauve (18 September 1838 – 5 February 1888) was a  Dutch realist painter who was a leading member of the Hague School.
He was a very significant early influence on his cousin-in-law Vincent van Gogh.

He is mentioned directly or indirectly in 152 of van Gogh's surviving letters.

Van Gogh spent three weeks at Mauve's studio at the end of 1881 and  during that time he made his first experiments in painting under Mauve's  tutelage, first in oils and then early the next year in watercolour  (previously he had concentrated on drawing). Mauve continued to  encourage him and lent him money to rent and furnish a studio.
