In this image, you can see that the artist has used the Fibonacci sequence in their composition causing the focus to move around the image in a spiral until it hits the area just above the ladder. The image also has a vague but apparent "L" composition running along the negative space at the top and down the left side behind the hanging apparatus. This composition draws the eye towards the top of the step ladder also, complimenting the other compositional technique.
The artist for this image has used the rules of thirds for their composition. You can see how the pillar lines up with the two points on the left and the transition from light to dark on the wall marks the other two points, with the corner lining up almost exactly on the point. This composition draws attention away from the figure in order to focus on the environment and potentially distracting the viewer from the potential doom she might face. I believe that initially the viewer is supposed to be of ignorant of the snake as the figure, helping us the empathize, causing the image to be more effective in its story telling.
