Curves and Squares 

"Curves and Squares" is an abstract work by Charles William Smith, an American artist known for his geometric compositions. Smith, who lived from 1893 to 1987, utilized a limited palette of colors against a textured background. This piece is characterized by its interplay of organic and geometric shapes, with overlapping squares and circles creating a dynamic, almost architectural effect. Smith's use of subtle color variations adds depth and complexity to the piece, further enhancing the visual rhythm of the composition.
