Adhering to principles of design, the visual language employed is enough to convey a sense of landscape without giving too much away - leaving enough for viewers to assemble the scenery as their eyes traverse the painting. The impression of a horizon, established by a horizontal swathe of black in the center, breaks up the expressive treatment of the paint between the foreground and background, as well as helps evoke a more naturalistic sense of space.
