Human-centred naturalism is the idea that individuals and everyday life are effective and convivial vehicles for artistic expression; in particular, both Flemish painters portrayed figures in visceral poses, conveying raw human emotion through the use of a rich, deep palette with highly contrasting colors. They were both noted in Renaissance art and painted in unique manners, which are noted throughout art history as being "masterful" works of art.
In both Europe and many parts of the New World was the belief on a scientific notation that people from the African continent were somehow inferior specimens of Homo Sapiens.
