Measuring 36 by 49 centimeters, this masterpiece is now housed at Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, Germany. In this painting, Kandinsky sought to transfer his woodcut style to his landscape studies in oils, inspired by the Murnau landscape. The artwork features a train and castle, both prominent elements of the region's topography. However, Kandinsky did not aim for a realistic depiction; instead, he used color and form to evoke an emotional response from the viewer.
