For those who don't like videos, here's a written list of the murals you need to find.
Chapter 2 -- Easily missed depending on puzzle choices. For this one, you have to choose the path through the sewers to get to the Warehouse. Any other method (blackmail the guards, bribe the fisherman, favor from Cat, etc) and you won't be able to obtain this one. Fortunately, the sewer path is also tied to another achievement, so do these together on the same playthrough:
The The delusional investigator achievement in Call of Cthulhu worth 54 pointsBe the plaything of an hallucination
The mural is located straight ahead of you right after the hallucination that unlocks the above achievement.
Chapter 4 -- Four murals are in the caves below the mansion before you encounter the cultists, and should be easily seen as you move along the cave. NOTE: If you get to the part with the jump icon before you've seen the murals, you've missed them, make sure you backtrack and see them before jumping down or they're gone for this playthrough. Also, make sure to grab all four. NOTE 2: the first Margaret Wyckwood diary is on the ground to the right of the murals. Make sure to grab this as its easily missed.
Chapter 4, pt 2 -- When you get to the part where the cultists are performing their ritual and you have to sneak by them, you will see three slabs, with two occupied by "sleeping" cultists. Behind them is the mural.
Chapter 14 -- Right at the end of the game. It's directly to the left of the memorial marker for the Scylla crew, right before candlelit ritual circle where you speak to "Marie Colden".

I'd just like to add that you should get your strength skill up to %50 to pass the skill check in the warehouse in chapter 2.

This achievement is missable.
There will be 7 stone drawings that are scattered in the game that you will have to find in order to unlock this achievement and as you cannot go back and get them if you missed any it will cause you a new game.
The order is as follows :
Chapter 2 > After talking to Fitzroy the harbormaster the alleyway will open, walk to the end and turn left. Enter the open door and find the 3 hidden items lever, ratchet device, and cogwheel, after that use the ladder and go up. Use the 3 items you found. Here turn the handle but have in mind there is a SKILL CHECK HERE so if you break it just reboot the last checkpoint really fast before it saves and try again. When you open the crate go down and keep going, there will be a cut scene and after that, you will see the 1st drawing before the ladder. Click on it to save it.
Chapter 4
Five drawings are in the caves below the mansion. You will encounter the first 4 before the cultist.
Be sure to click on them to save them.
The fifth drawing is near the cultist, while you will sneak past them you will see 2 of them dead/sleeping and behind them, there will be a green glowing drawing of some sort. Click on it to save it.
Chapter 14
The last drawing is near the end of the game before you go near the candles, you will walk like a drunk man, turn left and you will see it on a wall. Click on it to pop the achievement.
Good luck and enjoy the game!

Clear and concise instructions and you provided screenshots. Quality guide. Don't know who gave you a thumbs down. Probably someone's buddy.

There are 7 drawings in total:
Chapter 2 - can be found immediately after the hallucination, which can be caught if you follow an alternative path to the warehouse (if that is the trophy “The delusional investigator / Delirious Investigator”).
Chapter 4 - 4 drawings will appear along the entire wall as soon as you separate from Bradley and squeeze through the opening in the wall.
Chapter 4 - the drawing will be behind 3 sectarians who are lying in a dream/coma, in the main cave where the ritual is being carried out (in general, in fact, it seems to me that this drawing does not affect the trophy, but I wrote it just in case).
Chapter 14 - the last drawing will be in the cave where Mary will meet you.
