Does the concept of Blanqueamiento/Whitening exist in your country?
>Blanqueamiento or whitening, is a social, political, and economic practice used in many post-colonial countries to "improve the race" (mejorar la raza) towards an ideal of whiteness.
>It was widely accepted in Brazil between 1889 and 1914, as the solution to the "Negro problem".
>Symbolically, it represents an ideology that emerged from legacies of European colonialism, which caters to white dominance in social hierarchies.
>Biologically, it's the process of whitening by marrying a lighter-skinned individual in order to produce lighter-skinned offspring.

Actually, in that particular painting, not only he thinks that but his mother-in-law (black old lady) agrees and is thanking god for her grandson being "white"
It was done by spanish painter Modesto Brocos and describes the brazilian whitening solution perfectly
