The composition uses a frame-within-a-frame technique, with a wood-carved screen serving as the foreground frame to highlight the internal corridor space. The photographer shoots at eye level, standing parallel to the screen to ensure the image remains vertical and undistorted. The framing includes the complete screen, the tables and hanging paintings in the middle, and the arrangements in the back, enhancing the sense of depth.
