The oval that frames this rabbit's face is doing two jobs at once - boundary and subject, since two asymmetric ears rise directly out of it, one leaning outward, the other broader and more upright, so the outline can't be separated from the animal it's supposedly just containing. Two small eyes and an unhurried mouth-curve sit inside, drawn with a brevity that stops just short of feeling unfinished.
