This work belongs to the group of paintings resembling walls that Karl Fred Dahmen created from 1960 onwards. During this period, he experimented with omitting, scratching and excavating the material, as a result of which the works became increasingly relief- and collage-like. The incentive for producing this group was Dahmen's preoccupation with the landscape in the Stolberg area, which at that time looked increasingly desolate and disfigured due to lignite mining.
