1 of 9: The pictures may be altered, by spinning any one of the three rings.
2 of 9: In order to open the safe, the correct picture must be assembled.
3 of 9: It's pretty easy to find the correct picture, if you've looked around carefully.
4 of 9: Look for a painting with the same picture on it.
5 of 9: In particular, look around room 18 (Cannon Annex).
6 of 9: The painting hanging over the stairs will give you all the information you need.
7 of 9: If you study the painting carefully, you'll notice something a bit different than the picture on the safe.
