The lion (left) looks out of the picture, taking the viewer's eye with it; there's no return entry point. But the dark eye is like a period, fixed, not entirely a part of the lion, and if lion shape dissolves in the viewer's eye, the viewer's eye does not leave the picture. The dark eye and the hard right edge of the lion (left) and the digging animal (right) are in a circle about the angled highlight line, approximately.
Verticality of the digging animal image stops the plane on which it sits from falling inward. Skewing it causes the right image to lose independent stability but facilitates movement within the combination of the left and right images.
