This trophy is earned for completing the game and is not missable. As you interact with the final tree in the mountains, you must navigate towards the central garden and climb the giant tree there.
IF you finish the game, you can reload to the checkpoint before finishing. Allowing you to grab some trophies you might have missed.
Ancient knowledge
Awaken all ancient paintings
Meadow (First area)
When you walk from the starting point towards the first big tree, where you have to plant a seed. You’ll come across a save-point (where you charge your energy). Go left from there, as seen in picture 1. There should be a painting.
Save point Painting
Gulch (Second Area)
Once you reach the second area, keep walking all the way forward. You’ll see a wall painting explaining how to do a fusion with 2 seeds. Keep going forward until you reach a giant tree that needs a seed in order to progress the story. On your right are 4 twigs, plants some trees there and the painting will show.

Highlands (Third area)
While you travel through the highlands, you’ll encounter the area shown below. It’s a not-so-secret area between 2 logs you can fly through. Should be very hard to mis.

Canyon (Fourth Area)
#1) Look for a checkpoint (energy re-charger), you should continue forward as seen in picture 1. Instead, go towards the spot shown in picture #1 and plant a tree. You should be able to fly across the gap now, as seen in picture #2.
#2) As seen from the final area (giant windmill), turn around and go back where you came from. You’ll see a checkpoint, keep heading back. Now you’ll be at the picture with “Area 2”. Keep going back until you reach the picture with “Look good here!” It has a giant arc tree in it. Now, look behind the rocks as shown in the picture “The logs”. Follow the path to find another ancient picture.
