Are we sure the plural is "frescoes?" The spelling "frescos" outnumbers it on google by about 40 to 1. Not that google is the supreme authority, but you might think more websites would use the correct spelling.

A fresco (plural frescoes) is any of several related painting types. The word comes from the Italian affresco which in turn derives from fresco ("fresh"), which has Germanic origins. Fresco paintings can be done in two ways: Buon fresco paintings are done on wet plaster, while a secco paintings are completed on dried plaster
