Baldur’s Gate 3: Eyes and Light Wall Painting Puzzle Solved

The key to solving this puzzle lies in analyzing the painting and how it relates to the immediate surroundings. Here’s some enlightenment: much like you in this room, the eyes are surrounded by light beams. The one thing this room lacks to reflect the puzzle’s wall painting is some lightning. How about we turn on the lights around here?

To solve the Eyes Wall Painting puzzle in Baldur’s Gate 3, follow these steps in no particular order:

1. Light up every torch to the right and left side. There are three on each side, six in total.
2. Light up the two Braziers at the center of the room.
3. Light up the candle atop the cupboard, next to the Gilded Chest.

Now that the lights are on, the environment is much more pleasant to look at. Oh, and the stone slab to the room’s northeast will shine with a blue glow, just like the color of the Eyes in the puzzle’s Wall Painting. Interact with the door to access the now unlocked area. Time to loot some goodies.

Inside, an Opulent Chest with some magic loot can be found. Here’s hoping Gale won’t ask you to hand it over anytime soon.
