Considering that the entire rafter was pristine at the time of installation, I can't imagine any plausible reason that the original masons would have painted it in situ sideways, down there in the tight space of the sharp angle where the wall block forms a horisontal shelf at that junction rather then raise the entire thing a few feet where they could have far more comfortably painted it with plenty of space at both ends and in its proper orientation.
