Marc was inspired by nature and the countryside but his pictures were often mystical representations of the world he viewed. Famous more for his animal paintings and use of colour, in this painting, it is the human forms beside the Waterfall that draw the viewers’ attention. Marc had made numerous sketches of the women for his picture. They appear to have been carefully posed beside the waterfall and they seem to mirror the waterfall's flow. The women, like the one in his "Dream" painting are slightly reminiscent of the nude women that featured in Gauguin's Tahiti scenes.
