A secret layer inside a Naples church finally swung open after restoration work in 2022 revealed a 17th-century fresco of Saint George slaying a dragon. The artwork had been hidden behind another painting for more than 380 years, keeping the scene locked away until now. That mechanism allows the whole thing to move like a door while the wall inscription SIT PAX IN VIRTUTE TUA watches over it all.
