Not a factor when you only use a sample of 35 generations (that's the argument you would make if the sample was in the thousands or tens of thousands). You can even use humans as a test subject with that time-frame....the evidence would start in the Medieval era, but pretty sure artistic works would actually work as a rough expression of human attributes over the years.
Over thirty five generations there would be very little difference, and in art there is very little change in the ability of the artist.
