The Sims 2 Opportunity Pack Lady on Red Tapestry
Purpose
1) To provide high end end wall decor that builds skill, interest and enthusiasm at a continuous and significant rate.
2) To provide an alternatively sized single tile basegame compatible wall hanging, slaved to both the Lady on Red portrait and the Fourth Element tapestry.
3) To provide a selection of appropriate recolours.
Description
With an aspect ratio of 0.75, the basegame Lady on Red (Bella) portrait is a very useful and popular size. However, it is not particularly appropriate for pre-modern scenarios, even when used with a wood coloured frame. This project enables the many available Lady on Red recolours to be incorporated into tapestries.
This height adjustable handicraft is slaved to both the Lady on Red portrait and the Fourth Element tapestry: any Lady on Red recolour can be fused with the borders and supported by the hanging materials of a Fourth Element texture. Viewing this tapestry will significantly boost Creativity skill as well as increasing Fun and FreeTime Arts & Crafts enthusiasm. Serious Sims and Sims who talk about the tapestry together will also develop an interest in Culture.
With typical viewable objects, Sims will admire them only until their Fun motive is satisfied - or even before that. In contrast this tapestry will engage Sims until their needs are depleted, like purely skill building objects. In recognition of this more significant potential for skilling, I have catalogued the Lady on Red Tapestry in Hobbies/Knowledge at a cost of §3000, like the Opportunity Pack Collector's Editions, which have a similar function.

Autonomous viewing of decorative objects can be annoying, so Sims will not autonomously view or critique the Lady on Red Tapestry unless a player directs a Sim to do so. However, once you ask a Sim to View or Critique this object, it may then be viewed autonomously by any other Sim on the lot. If no Sim uses the tapestry for 30 to 36 game hours, it will no longer be usable autonomously. Alternately, the Reset Autonomy button can be used to disable autonomous viewing or critiquing at any time.
For very serious Sims - those with a Playful score of one or less - the "Critique" option will appear instead of "View". If the object is viewed or critiqued enough an "Easter egg" will be revealed.
Because Sims will continue to use this object until a significant loss of motives, rather than flitting from one object to another as with a standard Viewable object, the Lady on Red Tapesty does not support the "View Many" feature.

The Fourth Element tapestry recolours featured in the thread are from The Sims 2 Opportunity Pack Lectern & Accessories
Similar cultural and historical skill building objects can be found in the Opportunity Pack Collector's Editions and The Sims 2 Opportunity Pack Reference Section: Books & Notes
If you want the usage of the Lady on Red Tapestry to be completely automomous, install the Autonomous View Controller
I suggest using Pescado's Community Lot Skilling and Enthusiasm patch so that these and all other skill building objects are fully functional on all lots.
