Disappearing Picture

I made a picture for a wall (of a house I purchased) but in hanging it on the wall I seem to have shoved it into the wall. Now I can't select it to, for example, delete it. Is there any way to get in touch with this picture again or are the prims that comprise it gone for ever?

Thanks for any insight.

Option 1: Enter edit mode and drag a selection window that will encompass the painting.

Option 2: Move the wall (or the house) a bit to get the pic back.

Option 3: use the camera controls to look inside the wall & select it and move it.

Option 4: Debug>Rendering>Hide Selected

Turn this on and select the wall. It disappears because you have "Hide Selected" turned on. Now select the picture. Turn off Hide Selected and move the picture out of the wall using the normal edit tools.

That did it ... edit + select.

Thanks much, folks.
