Frog's Medieval Paintings
Adds 20 framed, real-life historical paintings of medieval scenes to the game.
Every block of painting has a resolution of 64x64, just so there's enough detail to tell what it is.
The paintings are mostly Pre-Raphaelite, with some Renaissance and other paintings. While most of these are more recent than actual medieval art, I think they'd suit a medieval build. I may make another mod at some point with real medieval art because most of it doesn't fit the vibe I was going for with this one.
Feel free to suggest paintings to add in the comments, but bear in mind they have to be historical for copyright reasons, I can't go smaller than 2x2 blocks to preserve the detail, and the paintings kinda have to be simple enough to survive the pixelation (so no Hieronymus Bosch unfortunately).
This mod adds the paintings as options for the vanilla painting, and all are easily searchable in creative by searching for "FMP".
This is my first mod, I hope to make more medieval decoration mods in the future
