I mean, yes, black people were present but in very small numbers, and their presence was rare enough that they often stood out significantly in the historical record. The most were probably around the southern borders of todays europe, like spain, italy and greece, but black people in todays germany, poland or even further up north were an absolute rarity. Even in southern europe, black people were rare enough that many people only saw a handful of them in their lifetime.
Germany nor Poland made the white jesus, your bringing up an entirely moot point

German art of jesus.
I don't know polish so idk what to look for, but I'm very certain I'd find some white jesus art from that timeframe from a polish artist.
Please fuck off, you lemmy.ml people are fucking uninformed beyond imagination but pretend you know everything. You are so obnoxious. Get out of my feed.
Many people only saw a hundred people in their lifetime. Most people were farmers. There were no trains or TV then.
Those people weren't the ones painting paintings and writing stories
