They might just paint over it now.
That is stone wall. You don't paint those. Its generally unwise to paint brick, stone, or concrete surfaces. Stonework is porous, and paint is not. This makes it retain water, and wear much faster than it should.
Painting over the entire wall to cover the shadowy remnants is not an option.
They could paint it red

Reminds me of the German "Soko Wand&Farbe" (Special investigation unit Wall&Paint)
You can paint brick, but you shouldn't. It will reduce the life significantly.
Well maintained brick lasts generations. Painted brick lasts decades. Its a slow process, but it does destroy the wall.
Bold of you to assume they care more about structural integrity than public image
