He Protestant condemnation of religious art resulted in iconoclasm across Europe in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. What is iconoclasm?

Iconoclasm refers to the intentional destruction of religious icons, images, and monuments, often motivated by a belief that such representations lead to idolatry and distract from true worship. During the Protestant Reformation in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, many Protestant groups rejected the use of religious art, viewing it as contrary to their interpretation of Christianity. This led to widespread acts of iconoclasm across Europe, where churches and artworks were vandalized or destroyed in an effort to purify faith and practice. The movement significantly altered the landscape of religious art and architecture in the affected regions.
