Paintings are decorative entities that hang on walls.

Obtaining

Breaking

To remove a painting from a wall, a player can attack it, break one of its supporting blocks, or place a block on the front of it (the block is placed on the wall behind the painting rather than being placed 1 block off of the wall). A painting can also be broken by an explosion. A painting always drops as an item when broken.

A painting can also be broken by throwing a projectile at it. The projectile can be any projectile with knockback or that does damage:

• Arrow (it disappears upon hitting a painting)
• Egg
• Ender Pearl
• Fireball
• Llama Spit
• Shulker Bullet
• Small Fireball
• Snowball
• Trident
• Wind Charge
• Wither Skull
• Fishing Bobber

Usage

Placement

All paintings as of the Tricky Trials update. Note that the 2 x 2 paintings on the far right are only obtainable via commands.

Paintings can be placed on the sides of most solid blocks (including slabs, stairs, fences, walls, doors, trapdoors, fence gates, glass panes, iron bars, chains, etc), as well as some non-solid blocks such as signs, banners, pressure plates, bamboo shoots, and sculk veins.

Being an entity, paintings can simultaneously exist in the same space as blocks such as water or torches. Specifically, a painting can share the space with any block whose collision box does not intersect its hitbox. Paintings, however, cannot intersect other paintings or item frames. Being an entity, paintings can be broken in adventure mode.

There are several different sizes of paintings, listed below. When placed, a painting checks for the amount of space it has around its center point. It then chooses a random canvas of the maximum size allowed in the available space. By arranging blocks on the wall, the player can ensure the painting is the size wanted.

A painting cannot cover an empty gap in a wall. When one of the supporting blocks is removed, the painting breaks after 20 game ticks (1 second), if no supporting blocks are replaced during that interval.

Preset paintings

In Java Edition, preset painting items are available in the "Functional Blocks" tab of the Creative inventory. The name, size, and author of the painting are displayed in the item tooltip. The "Operator Utilities" tab, if enabled, also contains the four unused elemental paintings. Unlike the regular painting item, these always place the same canvas.

Properties

Players and mobs are able to walk through paintings, as long as the blocks supporting the painting allow it (signs, open doors, etc). Secret doorways can be created this way. As mobs can pathfind through paintings, secret doorways are ineffective against them.

Paintings are non-flammable and allow light to propagate through them.

Canvases

There are 46 paintings in the game. 40 of the paintings were made by Kristoffer Zetterstrand, five were made by Sarah Boeving, and one was made by Jens Bergensten.

Unused paintings

In v0.5.0 alpha, with the addition of paintings to Pocket Edition, four unused 32×32 paintings were present in kz.png which remained unused. See Bedrock Edition unused features § Paintings for more information. They were also added to Java Edition in snapshot 22w16a. They cannot be placed by default, but can be summoned by commands (such as /summon painting ~ ~ ~ {variant:"water"}) or through a data pack. They can also be obtained directly from the Operator Utilities tab in the Creative inventory.‌

According to Helen Zbihlyj, these paintings were originally added “as part of a Pocket Edition promo map” (no footage found) which was planned to be a part of Pocket Edition promotion at MINECON 2012 or 2013 and have never been used in game. The artist of these paintings remains unknown, but is credited to Mojang on their debut to Java Edition.

Issues

Issues relating to "Painting" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

Trivia

• On April 26, 2011, Notch stated that the automapping code can be used to share custom paintings and books in the future.
• The texture on the back of a painting is the same as the wooden planks texture, but with a yellowish color similar to that of chests (but slightly darker).
• The "Skull on Fire" painting contains a Minecraft world in the background, which is based on a screenshot taken by the artist in Alpha 1.1.2_01 (or earlier) on October 12, 2010, at 13:22:49 (UTC+2).
  • The seeds for this world are -1044887956651363087 and -6984854390176336655 (both are the same), standing at X=-249.65, Y=91, Z=-29.04.
• The "Skull on Fire" painting's texture was added in Beta 1.3. However, the code for paintings to randomly display the part of the Kz.png texture that was to be occupied by the Burning Skull painting was added earlier, in Beta 1.2_01. As there was nothing on this part of the texture except for a purple background grid, this is what would be displayed if the painting was randomly chosen, until the Burning Skull painting texture was actually added.
• The original "Skull on Fire" painting was given to the winner of an official texture pack competition by Mojang.
• The "Wither" painting was the first painting to be painted by someone other than Kristoffer Zetterstrand, instead being made by Jens Bergensten.
• On Minecraft's 15th birthday, 15 new paintings were added.
• The "Unpacked" painting's pig was scaled up by Sarah Boeving in order for it to pop out for in the painting.
• The "Backyard" painting contains a swear word in the unpixelated version.
