Yeah you're right. Actually I wouldn't know if its true or gigantic selection bias.
If you look at old pictures of people, they tend to be pretty good looking. There's a survivorship bias there. Same thing going on, which is what you're alluding to. We wouldn't make a tapestry of men grinding flour or whatever.

This got me thinking though, because I agree high art is biased towards war, but Hungarian folk songs are exclusively about harvest and sex AFAICR.
