These are ancient animal paintings created by Naoe or Yasuke. When nearby, a painting icon appears on your compass and map. Crouch, sneak up, hold L2/LT, and the painting is complete. However, legendary Sumi-E don't appear on the map, making them trickier to find. Five exist, with availability depending on the in-game season.
