This article is about an older version of DF.

Fortress Mode

Art is a generic term for a way of recording history. You can order your dwarves to create art by ordering them to Template:L and Template:L stone walls, or to sew a Template:L or Template:L image. Art images also appear on Template:L.

Art records your fortress's history, such as when your dwarves were Template:L by bloodthirtsy Template:L.

Ordinarily, simply inspecting a piece of art only shows what the art is of. If you are in Adventurer mode, or if the option is enabled in the init.txt file, inspecting a piece of art gives a history of what it depicts, including the names of those depicted.

Adventure Mode

Art from previous fortresses or NPC races can be seen and appreciated. Use l to look around, then a over an engraving you want to look at. For Template:L tapestries, you can see their description from your inventory.
