I think much of the appeal has to do with the rectilinear quality of the 
composition.  That is that the major planes of the composition are 
either aligned with the picture plane or are perpendicular to it.  This 
together with the strong geometry of the major features gives the 
picture an enduring quality and gives the real textures of the 
isosurfaces something to play against.  It allows the pun between the 
plane of the canvas and that of the picture.  Also there is an 
interesting study in perspective technique: the strong geometric 
perspective of the foreground elements frame a landscape scene which 
employs the overlapping of elements and the use of haze to suggest 
distance.
