Offered here is a vintage 1924 Metropolitan Museum of Art print of Spring by Dutch realist painter Anton Mauve (1838–1888).
Mauve—an early and influential mentor to his cousin-in-law Vincent van Gogh—was celebrated for his naturalistic rural scenes. This print captures one of his classic subjects: a shepherd and his dog guiding a quiet flock, rendered in Mauve’s soft, atmospheric style.
