Thoughtful composition

How has the artist placed the image on the page?  You can view the frame of the paper as a window or containing box.  Where is our attention directed?

Square and long formats are less common and can have more impact for that reason.

Shadows and shading

When did you last see a cast shadow in a drawing or painting?  Is the shading hard or soft?  How does this affect our interpretation of the picture

What has been left out of the picture?  We naturally want to look at the face but here we have to gaze at the anonymous body as though we are at the beach or in sauna. Joyce
