Bill Clinton in a Blue Dress
Artist: Petrina Ryan-Kleid
Oil on canvas · Manhattan townhouse — entrance hallway
Painting of former President Bill Clinton wearing a blue dress and red high heels, posed in the Oval Office. Discovered during the FBI's 2019 raid. Epstein emailed instructions on June 5, 2012: 'hang the Clinton painting in place of the art work, so that people walking by can smile.' The artist, Petrina Ryan-Kleid, said she did not sell it to Epstein and did not know how he obtained it.
George W. Bush with Paper Airplanes & Collapsed Jenga Towers
Artist: Petrina Ryan-Kleid
Oil on canvas · NOT confirmed in Epstein's possession (unverified)
'War Games' (2012) — the companion piece to 'Parsing Bill.' Depicts Bush sitting cross-legged on the Oval Office floor, grinning while holding a paper airplane, with two collapsed Jenga towers and scattered blocks (symbolizing the Twin Towers and 9/11). Both paintings were created as part of Ryan-Kleid's MFA thesis at the New York Academy of Art and exhibited at the 2012 Tribeca Ball. While 'Parsing Bill' (Clinton) was CONFIRMED in Epstein's townhouse, the Bush painting has NOT been verified in any Epstein property despite widespread social media claims. Snopes rates the claim as 'unproven.'
Grand Staircase & Interior
Architecture, oil paintings, furnishings · Manhattan townhouse — main stairwell
The 21,000 sq ft townhouse's ornate stairwell featured gold-framed portraits, marble fireplaces, and lavish period furnishings. FBI government exhibits documented the opulent interior that visitors described as a mix of museum, private club, and deeply unsettling monument to power. The decorating blurred the line between high culture and sexual objectification at every turn.
Stuffed Poodle on Baby Grand Piano
Taxidermy / found object · Manhattan townhouse — library room
A full-size taxidermied poodle perched atop a baby grand piano greeted visitors in the ornate library room. Multiple visitors — including journalist Vicky Ward and others — described this as one of the most memorable (and bizarre) objects in the house. FBI evidence photo EFTA00000116 shows the library with the baby grand piano against an orange wall surrounded by bookshelves.
Stuffed Tiger on Floor
Taxidermy · Manhattan townhouse — dark-paneled room
A full-size taxidermied tiger sprawled on the floor of a dark wood-paneled room. Along with the stuffed poodle, giraffe, and hippo, the townhouse's taxidermy collection was described by visitors as both surreal and disturbing — more akin to a trophy hunter's lair than a Manhattan residence.
Entrance Hall with Monumental Murals
Artist: Unknown
Large-scale murals, painted walls · Manhattan townhouse — entrance/stairwell
The main entrance hall featured massive pastoral and landscape murals covering entire walls, flanking a grand staircase leading to ornate double doors. FBI government exhibit 933 captured the scale of the decorations. Visitors noted rows of glass prosthetic eyeballs in a display case near the entrance corridor — individually crafted by an English manufacturer — reinforcing the townhouse's pervasive voyeurism motif.
3D-Printed Chess Set with Female Figurines
Artist: Custom commission ($5,000 project)
3D-printed figurines on chessboard · Manhattan townhouse
A custom chess set where 36 pieces were 3D-printed figurines of young women in suggestive poses. Around 9 women in their 20s were photographed in a NYC studio in 2016, and the images were used to create the figurines. Epstein himself posed as the 'King' piece wearing white and black robes with golden crowns. The $5,000 project was documented with photos showing Epstein in full costume posing as the king of his own chess game — a literal metaphor for how he viewed the women in his orbit as pieces to be played.
Bronze Bride Hanging from Stairwell
Artist: Unknown
Bronze sculpture, fabric, mixed media · Manhattan townhouse — main stairwell
A life-size bronze female figure in a white wedding dress/gown, suspended by a rope from the ceiling of the main stairwell, against a backdrop of a blue sky/clouds mural. Multiple visitors described it as deeply disturbing — a bride hanging by her neck in the entrance of a sex trafficker's home. The sculpture blurred the line between art collection and the grotesque sexual objectification of women that defined the townhouse.
Mural of Prison Scene
Artist: Unknown
Large-scale mural · Manhattan townhouse
A detailed mural depicting a prison scene, installed years before Epstein's first arrest. Some reports describe it as including a self-portrait of Epstein in a jail setting. Whether prescient or deliberately provocative, it was noted by many visitors.
Photorealistic Eyeball Mural
Artist: Unknown
Large-scale mural · Manhattan townhouse — stairwell
A massive photorealistic painting of a human eyeball dominated a section of the stairwell. Visitors described it as deeply unsettling — a surveillance metaphor and reminder that everything was being watched. The eyes-as-decor motif recurred throughout the property with glass prosthetic eyeballs in display cases.
Blue-and-White Striped Temple
Architecture / painted concrete · Little St. James island — hilltop
The iconic blue-and-white striped temple structure on the highest point of Little St. James island. Originally reported to be a music pavilion or gym, the structure had a gold dome (later blown off in a hurricane) and owl statues flanking the entrance. The FBI found tunnels and underground passages connected to the structure during their 2019 raid. It became the most recognizable symbol of the island.
Temple Architectural Plans & Entrance
Artist: Unknown architect
Architectural drawings, painted concrete/stone · Little St. James island — temple entrance
Architectural plans for the temple structure were seized as evidence, revealing the carefully designed layout. A pair of large gold-painted owl statues flanked the entrance to the hilltop temple, visible in drone footage and satellite imagery. The plans and exterior were extensively documented during the FBI's 2019 raid.
Little St. James — View from the Sea
Little St. James island — U.S. Virgin Islands
Panoramic view of Little St. James from the water, showing the 70-acre island Epstein purchased in 1998 for $7.95 million. The American flag flies prominently on a tall flagpole. The island's manicured compound and structures are visible against the tropical backdrop — the scene of countless alleged crimes hidden in plain sight in the Caribbean.
Dental Chair Room with Face Masks
Medical equipment, decorative masks · Little St. James island — interior building
One of the most disturbing rooms photographed on the island: a clinical dental chair surrounded by walls covered in eerie human face masks and sculptural heads. Released by the House Oversight Committee, this image raises deeply unsettling questions about what occurred in this room. The combination of medical equipment and the mask collection has never been explained.
Cow Sculptures on Lawn
Artist: Unknown
Painted fiberglass · Little St. James island — lawn near main compound
Full-size painted cow sculptures on the manicured lawns of Little St. James. Similar to the 'CowParade' public art installations found in cities worldwide, but placed on a private island with a very different atmosphere.
American Flag Installation
Large-scale outdoor installation · Little St. James island
A large American flag installation visible from aerial photographs, flying from a tall flagpole on the island. The patriotic display on the island of a convicted sex offender was noted by many observers as darkly ironic.
Leon Black's $2.7 Billion Art Collection
Artist: Multiple masters
Various — Old Masters, Modern, Contemporary · Private collection; MoMA board member
Leon Black, Apollo Global Management founder who paid Epstein $158-170 million in 'advisory fees,' assembled one of the world's largest private art collections valued at approximately $2.7 billion. He served as chairman of MoMA's board and was a major patron. After the Epstein connection became public, Black resigned from MoMA and Apollo. His collection includes works by Raphael, Munch's 'The Scream,' Picasso, Basquiat, and other masters.
Edvard Munch — 'The Scream' (1895 pastel version)
Artist: Edvard Munch
Pastel on board, 1895 · Leon Black private collection
Leon Black purchased this version of 'The Scream' at Sotheby's in May 2012 for $119.9 million — then the highest price ever paid for a work of art at auction. The buyer was anonymous at the time; Black was identified years later. His art dealings occurred while he was simultaneously paying Epstein nine-figure advisory fees.
Raphael — 'Head of a Young Apostle'
Artist: Raphael
Black chalk on paper, c. 1519-20 · Leon Black private collection
Leon Black purchased this Raphael drawing at Sotheby's in London in December 2012 for $47.5 million, setting a record for Old Master drawings. The work is a preparatory study for the Transfiguration, Raphael's last painting.
Maria Farmer — Artist, Survivor, First Whistleblower
Artist: Maria Farmer
Paintings, drawings, mixed media · Private collection / exhibitions
Maria Farmer graduated from the New York Academy of Art and was selling paintings for over $20,000 while still in grad school. At her 1995 MFA thesis show, NYAA dean Eileen Guggenheim introduced her to Epstein and Maxwell, pressuring her to sell a painting at half price. Epstein then hired her as art consultant at his townhouse. After the 1996 assault at Wexner's Ohio estate, she stopped painting for nearly 20 years. She resumed in 2019 after her story went public, stating: 'I started painting because of him because I wanted to honor the victims.'
'The Setiles' — FBI Diagram (2020)
Artist: Maria Farmer
Pastels on printmaking paper, 7 feet wide · Maria Farmer private collection
Farmer's magnum opus — a massive Hieronymus Bosch-inspired painting exposing Epstein's enabler network. The title rearranges the letters of 'elites.' Figures include: Epstein in a flying saucer, Maxwell as a reptilian creature in pearls biting a schoolgirl's head ('She only has a reptilian brain'), Dershowitz pantsless shushing victims under a tree of poisoned apples, Wexner as the head of a snake, and Vanity Fair's Vicky Ward and Graydon Carter (who killed Farmer's story) at tree roots. Farmer's attorneys Brad Edwards and Sigrid McCawley are painted as heroic cherubs.
'The Survivors Project' — 7 Portraits (2020)
Artist: Maria Farmer
Soft pastels on canvas · Gavlak Gallery, Los Angeles (March 2020 exhibition); gifted to survivors
Seven individual portraits of Epstein survivors, each on a distinctly colored background — turquoise, pink, purple, yellow, blue, green, and orange. Farmer chose to leave her own portrait as a blank sheet of paper: 'I felt like a blank sheet of paper for 24 years... I feel invisible.' Each portrait was planned to show subjects holding paper dolls representing girls who never came forward. Featured in the final episode of Netflix's 'Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich.'
'Accidental Sightings: Family Portrait' (2019)
Artist: Maria Farmer
Oil on linen, 50 × 32 inches · Maria Farmer studio / private collection
Part of Farmer's 'Accidental Sightings' series — oil paintings that appear to be vintage family photographs but reveal hidden supernatural and UFO phenomena upon closer inspection. The series explores 'the seemingly impossible,' reconsidering boundaries between fantasy and reality. Farmer's post-trauma art features symmetrical faces in surreal environments using acrid colors.
'Accidental Sightings: Earth Sperm' (2019)
Artist: Maria Farmer
Oil on linen, 42 × 58 inches · Maria Farmer studio / private collection
Another work from the 'Accidental Sightings' series. Farmer is drawn to geometry, line, anatomy, and proportion. Her work after returning to art explores human flesh tones and aims to evoke mystery through unexpected environmental imagery. The series includes nine known paintings: 'Family Portrait,' 'Earth Sperm,' 'No You Cannot Have My Orb!,' 'Essie and the Owls,' 'What Children Know,' 'After Supper,' 'Triangles,' 'Crop Circles,' and 'The TR3B on a Sunday Afternoon.'
'Bath Time'
Artist: Maria Farmer
Oil on canvas, 50 × 35 inches · Maria Farmer archive / private collection
An earlier archived work from Farmer's catalogue. Her figurative painting training at NYAA — one of the few art schools still focused on classical technique — gave her the technical skill to create haunting, intimate domestic scenes.
Commission Work — Portrait
Artist: Maria Farmer
Oil on canvas · Private commission
One of Farmer's commissioned portrait and figure paintings. Before Epstein destroyed her career for two decades, she was a commercially successful portraitist selling works for over $20,000 each while still in graduate school at NYAA.
'The Rape' (1995) — Sold to Epstein
Artist: Maria Farmer
Oil painting · Unknown — purchased by Jeffrey Epstein
The painting that started it all. Depicting a man standing in a doorway observing a nude woman on a sofa — an allusion to Edgar Degas's 'Interior' (1868-69), also known as 'The Rape' — this work was displayed at Farmer's 1995 NYAA thesis exhibition. NYAA dean Eileen Guggenheim pressured Farmer to sell it to Epstein for $6,000, half the $12,000 a German buyer had already agreed to pay. The forced sale was the mechanism through which Farmer was introduced to Epstein and recruited into his orbit.
Two Paintings for 'As Good As It Gets' (1996)
Artist: Maria Farmer
Paintings (medium unspecified), large-scale · Film set — 'As Good As It Gets' (1997, Jack Nicholson)
Two large-scale paintings commissioned for the film set of the 1997 movie starring Jack Nicholson. Farmer created these while serving as artist-in-residence at Les Wexner's Ohio estate, where Epstein had arranged studio space for her. This commission was the pretense under which Epstein lured Farmer to the Wexner estate in New Albany, Ohio, where she was subsequently sexually assaulted by Epstein and Maxwell in May 1996.
NYAA as Epstein's Recruiting Ground
New York Academy of Art, 111 Franklin St, NYC
The New York Academy of Art was a key recruiting ground for Epstein and Maxwell. Dean Eileen Guggenheim personally introduced Maria Farmer to Epstein at her thesis show, pressuring a half-price sale. Multiple NYAA students and graduates were brought into Epstein's orbit. He donated to the academy and attended events there, using promises of patronage to lure young aspiring artists.
'Cutie Pie' — Wexner Family Portrait Commission
Artist: Nelson Shanks
Oil on canvas (portrait) · Commissioned for Les Wexner; rejected
Epstein commissioned renowned portrait painter Nelson Shanks (who had painted Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, Princess Diana, and the Pope) to create a portrait of the Wexner family as a 'gift.' Maxwell arranged the introduction. When Wexner rejected the painting as 'inherently impersonal, inaccurate and disturbing,' Shanks sued for $339,900 — naming Epstein and Maxwell as co-defendants alongside the Wexners. A 2003 Forbes article documented the bizarre lawsuit.
Sotheby's and Christie's VIP Access
Major auction houses, NYC and London
Epstein's calendar entries show regular appointments at Sotheby's and Christie's, including private viewings not available to the general public. The April 2016 Shirley Temple Blue Diamond viewing at Sotheby's (with Woody Allen and Soon-Yi) was arranged through personal contact 'Frank Everett in the lobby.'
The Shirley Temple Blue Diamond Viewing
Fancy Deep Blue Diamond, 9.54 carats · Sotheby's, NYC — private viewing
Epstein's calendar for April 26, 2016 reads: '4:00pm View the Shirley Temple Blue Diamond at Sotheby's with Woody and Soon Yi. Meet Frank Everett in the lobby.' The 9.54-carat blue diamond was named after child star Shirley Temple who received it as a gift at age 12 in 1940. The dark irony of a convicted child trafficker viewing a diamond named after a child — accompanied by Woody Allen — was widely noted.
Epstein's Art Advisory and Tax Schemes
Financial Trust Company, Southern Trust Company
Art played a central role in Epstein's financial advisory practice. His relationship with Leon Black involved art-related tax strategies worth hundreds of millions. The Senate Finance Committee investigated whether Epstein helped Black use art donations and transactions as part of a billion-dollar tax avoidance scheme.
Hidden Camera System — Townhouse
Electronic surveillance equipment · Manhattan townhouse — throughout
The Manhattan townhouse was wired with hidden cameras in multiple rooms, including bedrooms and bathrooms. The FBI discovered wiring and camera housings during their 2019 raid. Employees testified about a dedicated room with monitors showing feeds from throughout the house. Maria Farmer described a similar surveillance room at Wexner's Ohio estate in 1996.
CDs Labeled with Names in Locked Safe
CDs / digital media · Manhattan townhouse — locked safe and fifth floor
During the July 8, 2019 FBI raid, agents found CDs and DVDs labeled with names of individuals in '[Name] + [Name]' format — in a locked safe and cached on the fifth floor. FBI evidence photos show stacks of discs, black binders containing part of the collection, and hard drives covered in evidence tape. The contents are believed to be recordings from the hidden camera system, central to the theory that Epstein used sexually compromising material for blackmail.
Austrian Passport with Saudi Residence
Passport / identity document · Manhattan townhouse — locked safe
Found during the FBI's 2019 raid: an Austrian passport (Reisepass, Republik Österreich) with Epstein's photograph but a different name, issued in the 1980s. The passport listed a residence in Saudi Arabia. Prosecutors cited it as evidence of extreme flight risk in the bail hearing. Its existence has fueled speculation about intelligence connections and the source of Epstein's original wealth.
Locked Safe — Diamonds, Currency & Evidence
Diamonds, cash, documents · Manhattan townhouse — dressing room
The FBI found a Gardall safe in the dressing room containing loose diamonds, stacks of currency in multiple denominations, the Austrian passport, and the labeled CDs. The combination of untraceable assets with potentially compromising recordings painted a picture of a carefully maintained blackmail and flight preparation kit.
Epstein's Personal Library
Books / printed material · Manhattan townhouse — library room
The townhouse contained an extensive personal library. Visitors described books on subjects including eugenics, genetic engineering, and transhumanism alongside works on physics, mathematics, and finance. Epstein was known to keep a copy of the Marquis de Sade's works prominently displayed.
Shirtless Epstein Photo with Toddler's Foot Visible
Photograph · Unknown Epstein property
Released in the December 19, 2025 DOJ file dump: a photograph showing Epstein shirtless, lounging on an armchair with a towel, while a disproportionately small leg and foot — described as wearing a Croc-style clog — is visible on a nearby sofa. A second photo shows Epstein turning toward the child. The images went viral and were covered by People Magazine, The Mirror, and Bored Panda as one of the most disturbing images in the release.
'Chicken' Photo — Debunked Viral Image from Epstein's Google Drive
Artist: Harald Seiwert (German photographer, 2003)
Digital composite photograph · Found in Epstein's Google Drive (EFTA01646032)
Photo EFTA01646032 from the DOJ release shows what appears to be a human leg between two raw turkeys on a cutting board — this went massively viral with claims of cannibalism or ritual abuse. In reality, it is a 2003 satirical digital artwork by German photographer Harald Seiwert titled 'Chicken,' depicting a nude adult male between two turkeys as commentary on vegetarianism. The DOJ redacted the nude body in the center, which made the remaining visible parts look like a child's limbs. Confirmed by Der Spiegel and the artist himself. The image was randomly saved in Epstein's Google Drive with no connection to his crimes.
Photographs of Celebrities and World Leaders
Framed photographs · Manhattan townhouse — throughout
The walls of the townhouse were lined with signed photographs of celebrities, politicians, and world leaders — including photos with Bill Clinton, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Woody Allen, and many others. These served as visual credentials for visitors, creating an atmosphere of legitimacy and power.
