The portrait of the black guy that Sean posted up really intrigues me.
It looks to be around 1480/1500 and the guy is clearly very well off, but do we know anything about who he was and where he was and what he was doing?

Random guess: a representation of St. Maurice?
(Edit: Wow. Much necromancy.)
Good guess. That is, if I remember correctly, a German painting of St. Maurice.
Yep. See more here: https://supernaut.info/2015/02/gemaldegalerie-st-mauritius-companions
