It's better than nothing, but not a lot better.

I'm not impressed by the way that link displays the image, but if that's
all you have
then that's all you have. Why not add it to the node as image=*?

Assuming you can find the node in the first place, then you can find its
location, and from that display the map. Here is a node for a cafe
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3257861861 with location displayed as
a link. Here is what I get by clicking on that link:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/52.08045/-4.65684
It gets harder to find the location for a cafe mapped as a building. But
visiting one of the nodes of the object will get you close enough.
The simpler the solution the better.

Maybe the source code for
http://gk.historic.place/historische_objekte/l/en/index.html?zoom=18&lat=52.08193&lon=-4.66055&detail=3&pid=HaHbHcSaHe
can give you some ideas. He highlights historical=* and heritage=*,
clicking
on them gives things like
http://gk.historic.place/historische_objekte/l/en/index.html?zoom=18&lat=52.08209&lon=-4.66055&detail=3&pid=HaHbHcSaHe&select=n5388183063
