by Team Jackdaw

Paintings++ adds a selection screen for choosing exact paintings to place on walls, with each painting image shipped with the mod.

What it does

Players open a GUI to select the specific painting they want, then place it on a wall. The base paintings were removed from the base game in an earlier update, and Paintings++ adds them back. Transparency support for painting presentation is available from 1.19 onward, and the resource pack allows full customization of the paintings.

Installation needs Fabric API and Cloth Config on Fabric, and Transparent is also required. Paintings++ runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 8 release versions, 1.12.1 – 1.21.11, under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license, and is not open source.
