A high-index reflective subgroup is the prismatic octahedral symmetry, [4,3,2] (), order 96, subgroup index 4, (Du Val #44 (O/C 2;O/C 2) *, Conway ± 1 / 24 [O×O].2). The truncated cubic prism has this symmetry with Coxeter diagram and the cubic prism is a lower symmetry construction of the tesseract, as .
Jay Hambidge (1867–1924) was an American artist who formulated the theory of "dynamic symmetry", a system defining compositional rules, which was adopted by several notable American and Canadian artists in the early 20th century.
In the visual arts, shape is a flat, enclosed area of an artwork created through lines, textures, or colours, or an area enclosed by other shapes, such as triangles, circles, and squares. [1] Likewise, a form can refer to a three-dimensional composition or object within a three-dimensional composition. [2]
A diamond cut is a style or design guide used when shaping a diamond for polishing such as the brilliant cut. Cut refers to shape (pear, oval), and also the symmetry, proportioning and polish of a diamond. The cut of a diamond greatly affects a diamond's brilliance—a poorly-cut diamond is less luminous.
Symmetry (left) and asymmetry (right) A spherical symmetry group with octahedral symmetry. The yellow region shows the fundamental domain. A fractal-like shape that has reflectional symmetry, rotational symmetry and self-similarity, three forms of symmetry. This shape is obtained by a finite subdivision rule.
A drawing of a butterfly with bilateral symmetry, with left and right sides as mirror images of each other.. In geometry, an object has symmetry if there is an operation or transformation (such as translation, scaling, rotation or reflection) that maps the figure/object onto itself (i.e., the object has an invariance under the transform).

This is a list of two-dimensional geometric shapes in Euclidean and other geometries. For mathematical objects in more dimensions, see list of mathematical shapes. For a broader scope, see list of shapes.
Albers would then paint over the squares using varnish, which would again provide insight into how different materials change the color of the squares. [3]: 6 To maintain the purity of the color of the squares, Albers would often paint over the varnish. This led to various issues with later conservation attempts.
