• With its dynamic, energetic brushwork, the drawing is rooted in the artist's Berlin years during World War I.
• The closely related paintings “Bahnhof in Königstein” (Gordon 469) and “Eisenbahn im Taunus” (Gordon 470, Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich) were also created in the same year.
• In the winter of 1915/16, the artist spent several weeks at the sanatorium of Dr. Kohnstamm in Königstein im Taunus, returning in the spring of the same year to complete a commission to decorate the well house.
