Lampoudis was a member of the Greek Renaissance's early Cretan School, a movement influenced by the art of Venice.

Angelos Akotantos and Andreas Ritzos were among the other Greek artists of Lampoudis's time who worked in a similar manner.

The Cretan School's movement from the Byzantine tradition towards a more refined technique has a parallel in how Duccio and Giotto developed their work in Italy.

There was a famous scribe by the name Matthew Sebastos Lampoudes from the Péloponnèse region, possibly Spartan.

Angelos Akotantos's and Andreas Ritzos's paintings served as the prototype of the maniera greca and the Greek Renaissance or Cretan school.
