In 1858 Mauve joined his much older friend Paul Gabriël on a trip to Oosterbeek, the Dutch Barbizon, where he met Gerard Bilders and Willem Maris, two artists who were to have an enormous influence on him.
There are a number of similarities between their work as well as essential differences: Mauve tended to add human figures to his animal pieces, whereas the youngest of the Maris brothers did not; Mauve’s cows, horses and sheep seem more peaceful than Maris’s—at times almost listless.
For a long time Mauve was impressed by Maris’s virtuosity as a painter, although he eventually adopted a different style.
