The perspective and foreshortening of the skeleton in the foreground is done well, the body is approximately 6 heads from top to bottom (or side to side) diagonally, which would indicate somewhere between half a head and 2 heads of foreshortening, which from the angle would make sense. The anatomy of the skeleton in general is good and proportioned correctly, all the limbs are placed somewhere which would make sense, and nothing is floating around wondering where the rest of the body has gone. There is one problem which is that some of the ribs are missing to the left of the spine.
As both the skeletons were diagonal from the viewpoint and the horizon line is not on the image, the only real hint that is given is the drapery on the floor, which would suggest that it is somewhere above the drawn space. This would indicate that perhaps the skeleton in the background should be foreshortened or angled slightly more, however it still adds to the depth of the picture and would appear to be proportioned in a way that makes sense with the skeleton in the foreground.
