Church frescos in Sweden : ウィキペディア英語版 | Church frescos in Sweden
Church frescos or church wall paintings ((スウェーデン語:kalkmålningar)) are decorative paintings, mostly medieval, found in several Swedish churches where they adorn the vaults and sometimes walls of the buildings. Paintings survive in both wooden and stone churches. At least 444 such church frescos survive to this day, only a fraction of the original number; churches in Sweden during the Middle Ages were not considered complete until they were decorated internally with such frescos. Today, the rich heritage of church frescos in Sweden has been described as a unique treasure. While some have been covered with whitewash during later centuries and laboriously uncovered and restored, others have stayed untouched for centuries. The well-preserved status of many of the frescos can be attributed to the fact that the Lutheran reformation was not ubiquitously iconoclastic in Sweden, and to the relative absence of wars on Swedish soil.〔〔 ==History== The oldest church frescos in Sweden date from the early 12th century; few of these have survived. The artists who painted these frescos probably came from present-day Denmark and Germany. The first frescos were in Romanesque style, with Gothic influences arriving circa 1250.
