Or then, potentially through pycairo if it has a recent cairo backing it. Or then https://pypi.org/project/skia-python/ - I haven't tested that and I don't know if that's built with FreeType in it, but if it is, it should support COLRv1 as well. 
Thanks. The black-renderer is the first one I found too, besides cairo. It is probably not hard to parse the fonts themselves, extract the bits and draw with it, but until freetype can load them via LOAD_RENDER (and its python equivalent) like it can with OT-SVG and COLRv0, COLRv1 is looking like limited to specific usage.
I may be wrong, but it seems that Freetype git HEAD cannot see COLRv1 glyph layers (yet).
