will be apparent upon a close examination. To wise Marevak. worthy advisor and counselor. from a grateful Zelligar and Rogahn."
In another corner of the painting is the signed name Tuflor;
Show spoiler
This being the artist who painted the picture. But this fact certainly not obvious to anyone finding the painting other than through deduction or by a character "asking around" once back in the civilized world.
The painting is quite large and bulky, as well as heavy, when removed from the wall.
If carried undamaged out of the stronghold and back to civilization, It could bring up to 300 Gold Pieces if sold.
However, anyone trying to sell the painting for its value will run a 60% risk that the purchaser will recognize the origin of the painting-and if this word spreads at large, the seller may have attendant problems, since it will be obvious from where it was obtained.

Hazards & Traps
The locked drawer of the desk is well-secured.
Show spoiler
Any tampering (with the exception of a successful "remove trap" by a thief) will cause the release of a terrible gaseous emission which will be so penetrating as to drive all characters from the room for one to four hours. With no saving throw (this happens only once).
The lock can only be picked by a thief character at his or her normal chances, but only a single try can be made:
if they fail, the lock cannot be opened by that character.
However. access to the drawer can be gained by dismantling the desk. This will require heavy blows from some kind of weapon (due to the noise. an extra check for wandering monsters must be mode if this occurs).

Architecture
The floor is most striking, as it's a continuation of the mosaiq pattern in the Room of Pools.
