Robert William Vonnoh (17 septembrie 1858 – 1933)a fost un pictor impresionist american care a pictat portrete si peisaje. A calatorit foarte mult  prin coasta de est americana si Franta, mai exact in colonia artistilor din Grez-sur-Loing.

Robert William Vonnoh  s-a nascut in 17 septembrie 1858. A studiat in Paris la Académie Julian sub indrumarea lui Gustave Boulanger si a lui Jules Joseph Lefebvre.

A predat la Cowles Art School in Boston (1884–1885), la School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (1883–1887) si la Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (1891–1896). Vonnoh a devenit membru al National Academy of Design in 1906.

Cea mai cunoscuta lucrare a sa este „In Flanders Field” (cunoscuta si sub titlul „Where Soldiers Sleep and Poppies Grow” ori „Coquelicots”) a fost pictata in 1890 in camurile de la Grez-sur-Loing. Desi a fost considerata cea mai ambitioasa lucrare a lui Vonnoh, fiind apreciata in numeroase expozitii, pictura nu a fost vanduta niciodata. In 1919 a fost achizitionata direct de catre Joseph G. Butler, fondatorul Institutului Butler de Arta Americana unde  pictura „In Flanders Field” va avea un camin permanent.
