In de kunsthistorische context kan de titel "Oberon" verwijzen naar de koning van de feeën in middeleeuwse en renaissanceliteratuur. Hij is vooral bekend als een personage in het toneelstuk "A Midsummer Night's Dream" van William Shakespeare, waarin hij de koning van de feeën en de echtgenoot van Titania, de koningin van de feeën, is. Dit kan suggereren dat de tekening een interpretatie is van dit mythische personage. De stijl van de tekening, met zijn losse en expressieve lijnen, kan ook worden geassocieerd met de abstracte expressionistische beweging, die de nadruk legt op de emotionele en subjectieve uitdrukking van de kunstenaar.
