question:
In one painting with this name, a man in red with his hand extended behind his back heads toward the main figure, who is collapsed on the ground; that painting is by James Barry. On the left side of this painting, a red-clad runner approaches the scene waving his hat in his left hand and holding a flag in his right. The two rightmost people in this painting both look at the title figure with their hands (*) clasped. The figures in this painting are depicted wearing contemporary clothing, despite Joshua Reynolds' insistence that the artist dress them in classical clothing. A native American in a pose similar to The Thinker is looking at the title figure of this painting. For 10 points, name this painting of the final moments of a British general by Benjamin West.
answer:
Fine Arts

question:
As Secretary of State, he sent a paperweight in the shape of a plowshare to everyone with whom he negotiated a treaty. His "thirty treaties" were discussed in his "A Message from Bethlehem," in an attempt to end war for all time. His opposition in a presidential election printed notes with his face and the phrase "In God we Trust . . . for the other 53 cents. " This politician's platform, however, as expressed in his 1896 convention speech got him the nomination to go against the Republican candidate, with running mates Thomas Watson and Arthur Sewall. For 10 points, name this orator who was the Democratic and Progressive candidate for the 1896 election and famously railed against a "cross of gold".
answer:
History

question:
When using differentiable functions in classic Sturm-Liouville problems, these quantities are real and may be ordered to form an infinite sequence. When Markov, or stochastic, processes are represented as a collection of probability column vectors, these quantities must include 1 among their number. The determinant of a triangular matrix equals the product of these quantities, which can be found in some matrix A by solving the characteristic polynomial in terms of some variable, obtained when subtracting that variable times the identity matrix from A. FTP, identify these scalars, usually identified as lambda, which solve, for some vector x, A times x equals lamda times x.
