|Title Appearance = Artistic Scrutiny

|Success title = What was the artist trying to do?
|Success description = (see table below)
|Success summary = The description varies based on your level of {{IL|Identified with a School:}}
{{Variant table|Condition = Identified with a School:|Effect=Description|Condition type=Text
|Value 0 = None
|Effect 0 = Whatever artistic impulses fueled this depiction, they […] elude you. But you can see that someone was trying to adapt the religious art of a simpler time to make a place for the Neathborn; or perhaps to render the creatures below less frightening.
|Value 1 = The Nocturnals
|Effect 1 = […] a naive and innocent imagining of heaven, the brushstrokes feathery, the hues meek. But a second artist has painted over with a much heavier hand, applying oily tentacles to the wolf and daubing a clay skin onto both the slumbrous oxen […]
|Value 2 = The Bazaarines
|Effect 2 = Two painters got at this unfortunate panel of wood […] The second artist […] appears to have been simply untutored […]
The first artist, however, had less of an excuse […] Perhaps it's to be expected: this painting predates […] Neathy Bazaarine art.
|Value 3 = The Celestials
|Effect 3 = One might almost call this work proto-Celestial. […] But the original layer […] was set down by someone who ''did'' live on the Surface already […]
It was a less skilled hand that added the tentacles […] But it is plain they picture a Neathy version of heaven […]
|Value 4 = The Mycologenes {{FontFate}}
|Effect 4 = '''No reward narrative information available for [[Fate]]-locked actions.'''
|Value 100 = You reject all labels
|Effect 100 = The results might be in questionable taste […] one cannot help admiring the spirited way the second painter on this work rejected […] the original art. The second painter's brushstrokes are expressively […] rendering the composition quite a bit more lively.

{{Rare Success
|Rare Success title = What was the artist's view of life?
|Rare Success description = (see table below)
|Rare Success summary = The description varies based on your level of {{IL|Identified with a Philosophy:}}
{{Variant table|Condition = Identified with a Philosophy:|Effect=Description|Condition type=Text
|Value 0 = None
|Effect 0 = You couldn't guess what philosophy would drive someone to paint a picture like this. But it seems to you that even its original form is painted in memory of a better time; that even those who lived on the Surface looked back to a lost sunlit world.
|Value 1 = The Legacy of the Anchoress
|Effect 1 = Perhaps it is your own school of thought that allows you to see the message of this work: All Shall Be Well, however many tentacles sprout on faces hereabout.
|Value 2 = The Unconfined
|Effect 2 = Your chief objection to the painter's philosophy is that it does not go far enough. […] why didn't the painter put the Peaceable Kingdom on the roof of the Neath? Or across the Unterzee? Perhaps that would have required too much repainting […]
|Value 3 = The Implacable Method
|Effect 3 = To a person of your methological bent, the painting doesn't make a very complete argument: it would take […] an entire book of biological drawings to account for all the animals of the Neath […]
Nonetheless, the gist of the painting is clear.
|Value 100 = Your Own Genius
|Effect 100 = You couldn't guess what philosophy would drive someone to paint a picture like this. But it seems to you that even its original form is painted in memory of a better time; that even those who lived on the Surface looked back to a lost sunlit world.

{{Failure
|Failure title = What kind of battleground is this meant to be?
|Failure description = (see table below)
|Failure summary = The description varies based on your level of {{IL|Identified with a Tradition:}}
{{Variant table|Condition = Identified with a Tradition:|Effect=Description|Condition type=Text
|Value 0 = None
|Effect 0 = The artist has imagined a kingdom without conflict, led by a child. From the expressions of the creatures, it is also a world in which no one is burdened with any particular thoughts.

Downright disturbing.
|Value 1 = The School of Hard Knocks
|Effect 1 = The artist has imagined a kingdom from which the School of Hard Knocks has been eradicated. The lion looks much too polite to maul anyone; the only urchin in sight is recently scrubbed and wearing a clean pinafore.

Downright disturbing.
|Value 2 = The Forms of the Tomb-Colonies
|Effect 2 = The artist has imagined a kingdom with no room for the fighting arts of the Tomb Colonies. The lion is all but smiling at the viewer, and the Rubbery Wolf's tentacles curl gracefully as though arranged by a skilled coiffeuse.

Downright disturbing.
|Value 3 = The Adventuress' Correspondence Course
|Effect 3 = The artist has imagined a kingdom with no need for the Adventuress' Correspondence Course. The lion has crossed its paws indolently, and all the creatures appear at least half asleep.

Downright disturbing.
|Value 100 = Your Own Fighting Style
|Effect 100 = If you lived in a kingdom like this one, you would never have developed your own fighting arts. Even the lion looks as though it would turn down a beefsteak in favour of a plate of fresh sprouts.

Downright disturbing.
