An early example dates back to the 16th century, when Michelangelo partially defaced a marble Pietà. He hammered Christ's left leg and arm, burning them. The motivations behind this act are skeptic, with accusations ranging from fear of being exposed as a Protestant sympathiser during the Inquisition to skepticism over the marble's quality.
