To disfigure, deform, or spoil the appearance or character of something.
From Latin 'ex-' (out, away) + 'figurare' (to shape, form). The verb form describing the action of removing or destroying a figure's form.
Exfigure is one of those archaic English verbs that seems made-up today, but it perfectly demonstrates how productive the 'ex-' prefix was in Early Modern English, allowing writers to create verbs meaning 'to undo' or 'to reverse' almost any action.
