Things are always salvageable, it just depends on time, money, expertise, etc.
I think I'd clean it up, cover the electrical with something to camouflage it, frame it out with something and leave the history exposed!
I don't think I'd even tint the plaster showing through to match, but that's another option.
Or, you could find a wallpaper mural of diamond head and cover the whole area with it as a nod to what was once there.
