Looks strange to me. Italians really get that swarthy-looking?

he looks Mediterranean, what's wrong with it? Spanish and Italians look like that. I don't see anything strange or spacial about him.

He looks middle-eastern in his second drawing.

Wow, I don't know what to say, only now I am realising why most people were shocked to hear I consider the Spanish/Portuguese to be white. I should have spend less time on stormfront (Italians look like central Euros bla bla bla)...

again it depends on who you define as white, Germanic types or Caucasoids like Mediterranean races also? some Spanish have Germanic background since they have a Visigoth influence.

Who knows how accurate such portraits are. He looks Italian in the top one. Most popes have been Italians. Italians must be God's new chosen race.
How can you classify paintings? Get a real hobby.

So how many more stupid threads concerning the possible Semitic looks of previous Popes are we to expect to see in the future?
