This behavior was introduced in 25w20a.
When placing a painting, it may visually move upward or sideward by one block. Once the chunk is reloaded, the painting is shown at its correct position.

Every time I place a 1x2 painting, then it just positions one block higher

Hey, so I was looking back at some posts, and it seems that this issue is tracked under: MC-102223

Hey, just for clarification, the issue I linked above was specifically for structure blocks, but it seems as it is happening when placed by hand now.

I want to add that this also affects paintings that have already been placed in your world. It seems that reloading chunks (for example, by going far away and then coming back) helps fix it temporarily, but the bug can reappear after reloading the chunks again or reloading the world itself. It doesn't affect all paintings either.
Yes, I also had the same problem, but I'll add one thing: depending on the direction in which it is changed, it is positioned incorrectly in different ways.
