Since the ringer voltage across the twisted pair is 120 VAC RMS the telephone can definitely handle that. Given the fact that the telephone is also supposed to survive induced surges from nearby lightning strikes to the line the telephone should be able to handle over 1000 V common mode impulses (but I don't know the exact limit). No telephone is expected to survive a direct lightning strike to the line (which could be millions of volts).

Note: common mode means the voltage is applied between the twisted pair lines (both at about the same voltage) and ground. If the survivable common mode voltage were to be applied across the twisted pair instead it would severely damage the telephone.

Can you receive picture message on land line?

No, you cannot receive picture messages (MMS) on a traditional landline phone, as they are designed to handle voice calls only. However, some modern landline services may offer features that enable the reception of multimedia messages through email or online platforms. In such cases, the recipient would need to provide an email address linked to their landline service. Always check with your service provider for specific capabilities.
