Actual lines are accentuated in this image. From all directions, lines are leading the viewer's eyes around the composition. Some lines are more weighty than others, which creates flow from one line to another, rather than having equally-sized lines that are random and chaotic. The eyes are lead to the center of the page and to the edges, and everywhere else. The use of line in this piece is simple and effective at providing a flowing composition out of a simple concept.
Volume is displayed in more ways than one in this image. Firstly, there is a form with a heavy emphasis on volume. It takes up a large amount of space, yet it is completely hollow and urges the viewer to look through it. Secondly, this form is a container. Inside the volume is another form; a mass provokes a closer look inside the volume. So, this image presents volume by definition as well as volume based on its contents within.
