These paintings are mainly found in [[Sacred 2:Tyr Lysia|Tyr Lysia]] and [[Sacred 2:Artamark|Artamark]], where Elves and Humans live.  [[Sacred 2:Thylysium|Thylysium]] in particular features many of these paintings as artists display their creations in the streets and around their homes.  Two paintings actually seem to be scenes from [[Sacred:Underworld|Sacred 1]]!

Painter.jpg
Ancaria is filled with works of art created by the various races which inhabit it. Elves and Humans draw and paint on canvas, while Dryads ink various tattoos on their bodies. Even the savage Orcs show an artistic side. This is a gallery of the art created by the denizens of Ancaria. For the designs the various factions have on their flags and armor, see Heraldry.

Paintings

These paintings are mainly found in Tyr Lysia and Artamark, where Elves and Humans live. Thylysium in particular features many of these paintings as artists display their creations in the streets and around their homes. Two paintings actually seem to be scenes from Sacred 1!

See also: Sacred 2:Fine Art for locations on where to find these paintings in-game.

Unfinished Paintings

Similar to the paintings above, these works are mostly Human and Elf creations. However, these paintings need more work, or perhaps a more talented artist.

Tattoos

"DaVinci" Anatomy Drawings

These three drawings are in the style of the anatomy figures drawn by the great Leonardo DaVinci, including the famous "Vitruvian Man," or in this case, a "Vitruvian Orc," along with Elf and Human anatomy studies. As such, they can be considered Easter Eggs.

Maps

Scholars, commanders, royalty, all have various maps in their possession. Although too small to be used or really examined by the player in-game, many of these items seem to be legitimate, semi-accurate maps of Ancaria, Thylysium, and other places, complete with tiny writing.
