Part of the general backdrop of the game are some very lush backgrounds. Home décor has not been forgotten. Paintings, tapestries and pelts hang in almost every home in Vizima. Official buildings have official looking documents hanging in full view. There are also numerous posters which hang in the exterior locations in the game. This page provides a little art tour of Viziman interior spaces:
Paintings[ | ]
Portraits[ | ]
By far the most common painting in the game, is it Leonardo da Vinci?
A painting of a scholarly looking fellow, probably the second most common painting in the game.
A painting of Yarpen Zigrin which hangs in the House of the Queen of the Night, perhaps due to Yarpen's "valued customer" status at the brothel. It also hangs in the most north-westerly house in the Outskirts, along with the painting of the halfling shown below. The same two paintings also flank the back door of the Pankiera house in the Trade Quarter.
A painting of a little halfling looking fellow that falls off the wall of a house in the Trade Quarter. An easter egg? It also hangs in the werewolf's lair, and in the most north-westerly house in the Outskirts, along with the painting of Yarpen Zigrin. The same two paintings also flank the back door of the Pankiera house in the Temple Quarter.
A painting of a pompous looking fellow found in the Order post where Siegfried hangs out in Chapter II and also in Agnes of Glanville's lair.
