    I went through about 40 maps last night as well, got 4 paintings, including a duplicate (PC/NA). Went through most without a single drop, then 3 somehow almost in a row. The RNG is stupid.

    I found 2 chests and got a map from one of them. I wonder if the treasure hunter perk affects painting drops.

    Yep, really low drop rate + RNG is rarely a good combination. I went through 11 maps yesterday and got one painting, which seems to be on the lucky end of the scale.

    So assuming you're on PC, they're there, just rare. If you're on console... then no, that hasn't been patched yet, which is something they've stated outright.
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    I did 15 maps and scored 2 large paintings that I had never seen from the normal chests (and I have 8 of those).

    I also have Treasure Hunter.

    I opened 23 maps and found one. I do indeed have the Treasure Hunter perk and max Legerdermain, if that helps as well. Still have three more to open but all in Cyrodiil...

    20 maps yesterday, another 30 or so maps today, still at one painting. Looks like we are talking at a what, 1% chance? Oh, well, guess that means art will be rare and expensive, stuff for the nobles and all that...

    ...

    ...can we haz a painting crafting skill? :p;):D

    PC/Mac Patch Notes v2.7.8
    Exploration & Itemization
    General
    Treasure chests found by following treasure maps now have a small chance to contain painting furnishings.
    Note: This does not apply to Collector’s Edition treasure maps, which continue to grant their previous rewards.

    The important word is 'small'. I'm not sure why players are expecting to find paintings.
    They're a bonus if you do, not the reason to do.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    Anything concerning housing items and crafting materials for crafting housing items is deliberately
    in short supply

    because

    Z wants YOU to buy these items in their C-shop.

    Stop complaining :)

    The game is a game
    the producers are a Real Life Enterprise
    and
    want to make Money.
    They are not into the game for fun.

    Same. It hasn't mattered at all.
