Wassily Kandinsky began as a law student in Russia, but traveled to Germany and France to study art. He was first inspired by Claude Monet's Haystacks (1890-91), as you can see from his own painting, Landscape with Tower (1909). One day, he came home and saw his Landscape with Tower from a distance. From that distance, he only saw the formalistic qualities of the painting (i.e. color, gestural brush strokes), which inspired him to focus on color and form as stated in his book, Concerning the Spiritual in Art. Moreover, Kandinsky explains in his book that Realism only pleases the audience physically in their eyes, but not spiritually or psychologically. So, he was also inspired by color, form, and music because these three things are purely abstract, and thus, please the mind in a psychological way. Consequently, his art progressed towards non-objectivity, as evidenced by his Black Lines (1913).
The link between the two is that in some paintings for example Composition VII the lines are going in and moving in ways that could be to do with the tempo and volume of the music and that he listened to the music when he painted
He combined vibrant colors with bold lines to convey his inner feelings about a subject.
Kandinsky began with realistic works. His early works were influenced by Russian folk tales. Many were landscapes. Then he painted in impressionist style. But soon he created abstract paintings. He used bright colors, shapes and bold lines to express feelings or depict music.

John Keats---- To Autumn
The group of lines in this excerpt that illustrates the music of autumn is: "And often like a scythe the grain-hook keen; Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep/Drows'd with the fume of poppies." These lines evoke the gentle, rhythmic sounds of the autumn harvest, with the imagery of the grain-hook slicing through the crops and the drowsy, dreamlike quality of the poppies.
The personification of autumn in these lines attributes human characteristics to the season, creating a sense of warmth and familiarity. By portraying autumn as a person, it helps readers to connect more deeply with the changing of the season and to evoke emotions tied to human experiences. This technique can make the description of autumn more vivid and engaging for the reader.
