Kirchner was a master of expressive woodcut printmaking, using bold colors and dynamic mark-making that closely mirrors the visual energy found in Tal R's work. His woodcuts share the same expressionist intensity and strong graphic language present in The Hour.

Munch pioneered the emotionally charged woodcut within a Nordic artistic tradition, using bold color fields and expressive grain textures that parallel Tal R's approach in this piece. His printmaking similarly explores psychological and temporal themes through raw, visceral mark-making.

Rauch shares with Tal R a boldly colored and expressionist visual language rooted in a contemporary European sensibility, often exploring temporal and dreamlike themes. His work bridges abstraction and figuration with the same energetic and unconventional compositional confidence seen in The Hour.
