iconoclascism

And propensity for vandalism that rivals the KLA.

They whitewashed over colourful wall paintings, removed many statues and stained glass windows, and destroyed all the shrines and saints' relics which had attracted pilgrims to many cathedrals, abbeys and monasteries

The English Reformation 1530

In the reformation the church decorations were whitewashed but 1961 the church was restored to its Catholic appearance including a fresco of the Archangel Gabriel weighing souls.

The Village of Kinsarvik

Like most dooms, it was whitewashed over at the Reformation. It was discovered by accident in 1892 when the boards were taken out to be burnt, and rain washed the whitewash off.

Dooms and the mouth of hell in the late medieval period
