About

Paintings are decorative blocks that hang flat against vertical surfaces. Place them on any solid wall facing outward, and they display one of several preset artwork designs. If a block adjacent to the painting is destroyed, the painting breaks and drops as an item.

Admins distribute paintings to players with the /give command. They stack to 64 per inventory slot, making bulk distribution straightforward. Paintings serve purely as decoration and have no mechanical function in survival or creative builds.
