Paintings randomly disappear after teleporting to their vicinity into unloaded chunks.
Steps to Reproduce:
place paintings and record coordinates
leave the area so the paintings are unloaded
Teleport back to the area with the paintings (I used a command block, but i don't think it makes much difference)
Observed Results:
if you're lucky, upon teleporting the paintings break before the game has rendered any blocks you can hear the sound. Where the paintings break is unclear, sometimes painting closer to the player don't break, while ones two chunks over do!
Expected Results:
the paintings should stay placed.
Notes:
This has only happened in multilayer, but it might just be that the multilayer caused more lag which led to the paintings breaking because the game hadn't loaded the blocks, and so they thought there wasn't any blocks behind them.

We haven’t been able to reproduce the issue so far, but if you have a copy of the world available, you might like to upload a copy of it for investigation.
On Windows 10 you can use the Export world feature.
On Android or iOS you need to use a file explorer to navigate to Device storage > games > com.mojang > minecraftWorlds
On Xbox or Switch the only way is to upload it to a Realm, and then download the world on Windows 10 or Android/iOS. (Please do not purchase a Realms subscription just to provide a world to us - but if you have a Realm already this may be a viable option if you wish to do so.
I am unable to reproduce this in singleplayer, so chances are that this can only be reproduced in multiplayer.
