This fan art for the anime and manga series of Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto, is good example of Triangular Hierarchy. When it comes to hierarchy in art, whatever is highest up is the most important. The artist put the characters in which is believed to be the order of importance. So it makes sense that Naruto is one who is higher up because he is the main character of the series, and it is even named after him. The artist must have felt that Sasuke is a slightly more important character then Sakura, so he is up a little higher than her. Also the way him and his teammates and friends are arranged and overlap make a triangle shape.
The artist also used shading, using light to dark gray, and the values of each color used to make the trio look three-dimensional. There also seems to be some use of value contrast.
