Pauline Kowarzik's 1928 watercolor, "Building Site of I.G. Farben," depicts a construction site with a crane in the foreground. The artist, a German painter, used muted colors to create a sense of realism and detail. The industrial setting is emphasized by the presence of a rail line and buildings, highlighting the rapid growth of industrialization in Germany. The artwork can be found in the Städel Museum.
