The definition [1] says:

isinstance(object, classinfo)
Return true if the object argument is an instance of the classinfo
argument, or of a (direct or indirect) subclass thereof.

and a short interpreter session confirms:

>>> class A():
...     pass
...
>>> class B(A):
...     pass
...

>>> a = A()
>>> b = B()

>>> isinstance(a, A)
True
>>> isinstance(a, B)
False

>>> isinstance(b, A)
True
>>> isinstance(b, B)
True
