Balance is shown here because there appears to be an even number of light and dark rectangles, neither overpowering the other. Proportion is created by the relative size of each form in the painting, in which no part seems under or over sized. There's harmony and variety because while each rectangle has its own uniqueness, they tie together because the rectangles are just varying hues of grey.
