For which purpose did some Renaissance artists use corpses?
sesenic [268]
Church restrictions on bodies: it was sinful for a person to be without clothing in front of an artist. To create realistic paintings, corpses were used. 

Corpses were used as a model for the human body. Renaissance painters strove for realism and the corpse provided a realistic human image. An alive person would not be able to pose, in particular without clothing, for a painter. This would have been sinful.

Tju [1.3M]
During the 19th century, race moved from religious-based to scientific based. This era resulted in scientists trying to prove that some races are genetically superior to others.

This type of racism called on scientists to take data (like facial features, distance between body parts, shape of head) in order to analyze it. At one point, it was argued that blacks had similar head shapes to that of chimpanzees  and monkeys to prove their inferiority.

However, it is widely known now as a science based on false data, exaggerations, and lies in general.
