sadly, we cannot preserve everything, otherwise the country will become a museum rather than a living place. Same way not all buildings are listed. |

Sometimes photos are enough to keep the memory alive. |

The essential fact is that they have only been preserved because they were covered over. |

I expect that they have been painted by hand. That's a declining skill, and there are places where this kind of thing is preserved. |
