Influenced by In contrast with ‘follower of’, we speak of ‘influenced by’ when an artist was influenced outside the context of an educational setting or servile following. An artist can be influenced by several artists at once, or in succession. In addition, there may be question of a transition to a personal style which may demonstrate development.: Hodler, Ferdinand
Kandinsky, Vasili Vasileevich

Comment: een groot deel van Amiet's vroege werk (zo'n 50 schilderijen) ging bij de grote brand in het Münchener Glaspalast in 1931 verloren; sindsdien beeldde Amiet naast zijn signatuur een gestileerde vlam af
