These are exactly the questions that a technical study would answer, and their absence is a qualification on the material account rather than a gap to be filled by assumption.

A materials-based reading therefore has to keep two registers separate: the composition is known from description of the image, while the physical making is known only from the medium and dimension fields. Within that limit, the pairing of a landscape subject with tempera on paper is coherent with the period before Kandinsky's abstract work, when he was still working with recognizable landscape motifs, as the 1904 date indicates.
