Connections with other artists

Teacher of This field mentions the names of pupils. What is at issue are the pupils who were significantly influenced by a teacher as opposed to every student someone ever had. See also the 'Education' field.: Caselli, Silvano
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.: Cézanne, Paul
Influence on This field specifies the artists influenced by the artist in question, without there being question of an educational setting or servile following.: Hitchens, Ivon
Munnik, Henk
Bissière, Roger
Marcoussis, Louis
Bruna, Dick

Subjects This field specifies the various subject categories or genres that constitute the oeuvre of the artist in question. The contents of this field are generally based more on the documentation available at the RKD than on the literature.: animal painting (genre), genre, interior view, landscape (genre), still life, bird scene, fruit piece

Medium/technique: oil paint

Art movement Here we mention the art movement to which an artist belonged. Many art movements have not yet been entered, because the content of this field is still under development.: Fauvism, Impressionism, cubism
grondlegger kubisme
