How many faces on the back of a 2 dollar bill and is there a afro American on the back?
Trumbull's original painting showed 47 signers of the Declaration of Independence. There wasn't enough room on the bill to adequately reproduce the entire painting so only 42 men are shown.An urban legend has grown up about a black person being depicted on the back of the US $2 bill. In reality the painting only depicts men of European descent, because at the time the founding fathers didn't permit even black freemen to participate in the politics of independence. Part of the painting is shaded, and as a result the engraving has heavier ink in that section which gives one of the signers a slightly African-American appearance.

Will parallel lines ever cross?
The idea or concept of parallel lines is defined by Euclidean geometry as lines that never cross. So the regular answer is: No, they never cross, because then they will not be parallel according to Euclid. But, I'm sure the questioner is not asking about Euclidean geometry but about reality. In this sense some people will say: No, parallel never cross because there is no such a thing in real life. Parallel lines only exist in our mind. But this answer is too simplistic. There is "reality" in our "ideal" concept of parallel lines. If reality was so disconnected from our geometric and logical constructs we would not be able to interact with the real world. We can walk, see and reason reality because we find circles, lines, logical constructs and 2 as the sum of 1 + 1, in the "real" world. Or at least, a very close approximation to that, though never "perfect" circles or lines. Kant clearly demonstrated that these ideas are "hard coded" in our mind, not learned, because we need this idea "framework" to rationalize perception in the first place. There has never been a society where 1+1=3 and where parallel lines cross at say, 100 feet. Questions like these are the beginning of modern philosophy, beginning with Plato who had not other option but to conclude that these ideas have an existence of their own in some kind of idea heaven. Of course the point is not whether this idea heaven exists, but to point out the real problems: Why do we have this constructs in our mind? What is the relationship to reality? Where do ideas come from? So, in summary, yes, parallel lines in our mind never cross, and yes, they seem not to exist in reality. But there is a very real connection between the idea and the "real" thing, but since we can only "see" the "idea" we can not now in "reality".

Which artists tradition introduced abstraction into the history of art?
The first movement that begins to delve into abstraction was Romanticism. From there it progressed to Impressionism. These movements were the first to bend reality and focus more on the artist's interpretation of reality. This movement was developed after the invention of the camera because painting was no longer needed to represent reality. Oh, and let me clear this up: abstraction DOES have a basis in reality. Non-objective DOES NOT have a basis in reality. In other words, if you see a painting that only consists of lines on a page, like a Kasimir Malevich painting, it would be considered a non-objective work. However, If you see a painting of a form that actually exists in reality, like a Picasso, than it would be considered abstract.
