Written by Richard Strauss to the words of the poem "Im Abendrot" (At Sunset) by {{EL|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Freiherr_von_Eichendorff Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff}}, the piece was written over a five-and-a-half month period in May 1948. Following Strauss's death in September 1949, the work was published posthumously alongside "Frühling" (Spring), "September", and "Beim Schlafengehen" (When Falling Asleep) as the ''{{EL|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Last_Songs Four Last Songs}}'' by the composer's friend {{EL|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_Roth Ernst Roth}} in 1950. Notably, after the soprano's intonation of "Ist dies etwa der Tod?" ("Is this perhaps death?"), "Im Abendrot" features a musical quote of Strauss's own {{EL|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphonic_poem tone poem}} ''{{EL|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_and_Transfiguration Death and Transfiguration}}'', written 60 years prior. As in that piece, the quoted seven-note phrase (known as the "transfiguration theme") has been seen as the fulfillment of the soul through death.<ref>Van Amburg, Jack (19 April 2012). {{EL|https://web.archive.org/web/20171108083244/http://www.jackthemusicologist.com/blog/2012/4/19/a-closer-look-at-strauss-transfiguration-ending.html "A closer look at Strauss' transfiguration ending"}}.

Herbert Glass writes of the ''Four Last Songs'', "[These] are [...] songs of farewell – to life, to art, to a vanished world. There is nothing like them in music for the sheer intensity of their concentrated, gentle heartache. Strauss’ songs are music of finality [...] [He] says goodbye wistfully, but not tragically.”<ref>Glass, Herbert - ''theford.com'' - {{EL|https://www.theford.com/musicdb/pieces/1813/four-last-songs Four Last Songs}}.</ref>
