View from Karren across the Rhine valley in W direction. The industrial estate shown in the foreground of the scene, in the suburbs of Dornbirn, belongs to a textile factory which goes back to the mid 19th century. The textile industry has traditionally played a large role in the province of Vorarlberg, but has substantially declined in the last decades.
