The Smugglers’ League has a wide assortment of unique treasures that you can help deliver across the Sea of Thieves. Some of these special pieces of cargo are Classic Paintings.
Each Classic Painting you find and successfully sell to the Smugglers’ League will count toward the Courier of Classic Paintings Commendation. Completing that Commendation as well as several related Commendations will unlock unique Smugglers’ League Trinkets for you to adorn on your very own vessel!
Classic Painting
You can randomly find Classic Paintings in Smugglers’ Caches, Smugglers’ Shipwrecks, and emergent Smuggling Skeleton Ships. Classic Paintings are not guaranteed to be in any location, so you’ll want to check each Cache, Shipwreck, and emergent Skeleton Ship you come across to find them.
Smugglers’ Caches are stashes of Smugglers’ League treasure you can randomly find on the beaches of small and large islands.
Unlike Black Powder Barrels and Crates of Rum, Classic Paintings do not take damage, so you don’t need to be too careful with them.
Sell a Classic Painting to the Smugglers’ League to progress the Courier of Classic Paintings Commendation.
You should also find Exquisite Paintings in Smugglers’ Caches, Shipwrecks, and emergent Skeleton Ships. However, if you are looking for Refined Paintings, you’ll need to embark on the Smugglers’ Route Run, as they are exclusive to that Voyage.
