**Investigation Date:** 2026-02-07 **Databases Searched:** **Total Queries Executed:** 165+ **Methodology:** Exhaustive keyword searches across both document collections, covering auction houses, art terms, galleries, dealers, artists, financial art references, known Epstein connections, and art-related services.

COMPREHENSIVE ART INVESTIGATION: EPSTEIN REDACTION DATABASES Investigation Date: 2026-02-07 Databases Searched: the primary document text database (1,808,942 records) -- referred to as v2 the Dataset 10 document text database (1,629,776 records) -- referred to as ds10 Total Queries Executed: 165+ Methodology: Exhaustive keyword searches across both document collections, covering auction houses, art terms, galleries, dealers, artists, financial art references, known Epstein connections, and art-related services. --- EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The investigation uncovered significant art-related activity hidden in redacted text across the Epstein document corpus. Key findings include: Direct Sotheby's connection via Christine Gibbons (Sotheby's employee) regarding El Brillo Way property, and a separate email about "Sotheby's and..." Christie's auction house email from a christies.com email address (September 2011, French-language context) Rothko painting -- a dedicated email about a Rothko painting Multiple paintings shipped from Paris -- at least 4 related emails about shipping a framed and valued painting from Paris Art insurance payments covering "bronzes" -- confirming Epstein held insured art collections including bronze sculptures Degas' "Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen" -- a book/document about this famous sculpture found in the corpus Impressionist art connections -- references to Renoir, Degas, Cezanne in what appears to be an art reference document Phillips Exhibition Loan Request -- indicating art lending/exhibition activity "Invoice for Paris Artwork" -- direct financial evidence of art transactions Atelier Meriguet (www.ateliermeriguet.fr) -- a prestigious French decorative arts firm, with a catalog request sent to Epstein's Paris apartment (22 Avenue Foch) Leon Black -- Epstein's close associate and one of the world's most prolific art collectors, extensively documented Interior designer/decorator searches -- active hiring and consultation Auction Houses NYT article -- an email forwarding "Auction Houses Seek a Competitive Edge" from the New York Times Tracey Emin artwork -- "Another World 2018" by the artist referenced in multiple documents Framecreations.com -- framing service used for items including jersey framing --- CATEGORY 1: AUCTION HOUSES 1A. Sotheby's EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01785536 0 v2, ds10 bject: El Brillo=br>Reply To: "CHRISTINE GIBBONS SOTHEBY EFTA01827993 0 v2, ds10 ect: Re: Sotheby's and Analysis: Christine Gibbons is identified as a Sotheby's employee/agent corresponding about 358 El Brillo Way, Epstein's Palm Beach estate. The second record shows a reply chain with the subject "Re: Sotheby's and..." suggesting ongoing correspondence. The J ff E i fragment on the same document suggests "Jeff Epstein" was mentioned. 1B. Christie's EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02029291 0 v2, ds10 rin @christies.com> EFTA02029291 0 v2, ds10 iv m h :'Fox. Hela" Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Full corpus search reveals 105 documents referencing "art insurance" (DS9:77, DS10:20, DS11:8). The complete April 5, 2013 email chain is now recovered: Melanie Spinella (Epstein staff) to Jeffrey Epstein ([email protected]) confirms bronzes covered under art insurance. Epstein then asks: "eileen said that there are no bronzes" -- contradicting Spinella. Epstein further asks: "are there apprasails, cost value" -- seeking appraisals. The "Eileen" referenced in the no-bronzes claim is Eileen Alexanderson (not Guggenheim), who was CC'd when Epstein requested a copy of the insurance policy. 3C. Degas' "Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen" EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01734425 0 v2, ds10 Grc7ory Hedberg / DEGAS' / LITTLE / DANCER, / AGED / FOURTEEN / ;he onrCer 'trio/ / that helped tpa[rk] / the birth / Mudent ref Analysis: HIGHLY SIGNIFICANT. This is a reference to the book "Degas' Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen: The Earlier Version That Helped Spark the Birth of Modern Art" by Gregory Hedberg. This book documents the discovery of an earlier version of Degas' famous sculpture "La Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans." The presence of this document in Epstein's files suggests either: (a) Epstein owned or was interested in acquiring a version of this sculpture, (b) it was sent to him as reference material related to an art transaction, or (c) it was found among his possessions. The subject matter -- a sculpture of a fourteen-year-old girl -- takes on disturbing resonance given Epstein's crimes. --- CATEGORY 4: ARTISTS REFERENCED 4A. Rothko (Mark Rothko) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01786553 0 v2, ds10 bject: Rothko painting Analysis: Direct email about a Rothko painting. Rothko is among the most valuable artists at auction, with works regularly exceeding $50 million. 4B. Renoir (Pierre-Auguste Renoir) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02020466 38 v2, ds10 Renoir Analysis: Appears alongside Degas and in Impressionist art context (see Impressionist section below). 4C. Degas (Edgar Degas) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01734425 0 v2, ds10 See "Little Dancer" section above EFTA02020466 38 v2, ds10 Degas 4D. Cezanne (Paul Cezanne) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02020466 37 v2, ds10 Cezanne EFTA02020466 37 v2, ds10 Paul C[ezanne] EFTA02020466 37 v2, ds10 ch artis[t] EFTA02020466 37 v2, ds10 n Atlant[ic] EFTA02020466 37 v2, ds10 eautifu[l] 4E. Impressionist Art Context (EFTA02020466, pages 37-40) This document contains concentrated references to major Impressionist artists across multiple pages: Page Fragments Found ------ ---------------- 37 Cezanne, Paul C[ezanne], ch artis[t], eautifu[l], n Atlant[ic] 38 Renoir, Degas, amille (Camille Pissarro?), Bonn[ard], Augus[te], ionists (Impressionists), influe[nce], hilde 39 Ann L, m Beach, 5 100, ventio[n] (convention?) 40 on dealer R[oss], & Ross, et New, Facing th[e] Analysis: This appears to be a document about Impressionist art -- possibly a gallery catalog, auction preview, or art reference document discussing Cezanne, Renoir, Degas, and likely Bonnard and Camille Pissarro. The reference to "Impressionists" confirms the art context. The fragments "dealer R & Ross" and "Palm Beach" suggest a Palm Beach art dealer or gallery context. 4F. Tracey Emin EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01363628 0 v2, ds10 TraceyEmin Another World 2018 (c)the artist Courtesy Tracey Emin Studio EFTA01369126 0 v2, ds10 Same EFTA01386295 0 v2, ds10 Same EFTA01387134 0 v2, ds10 Same Analysis: Four separate documents reference Tracey Emin's 2018 work "Another World" with the copyright notice "the artist Courtesy Tracey Emin Studio." Tracey Emin is a major British contemporary artist. Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Expanded to 13 documents (DS9:6, DS10:5, DS11:2). These are Deutsche Bank Wealth Management invitations to Frieze London/Masters art fairs sent to Epstein's DB accounts. An Intelligence Squared event ticket was also sent to [email protected] (Apr 2019). The documents are marketing materials, not legal or investigative documents. 4G. Koons (Jeff Koons) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01720503 51 v2, ds10 1_ , Koons Analysis: A reference to "Koons" appears in a document at page 51. The fragment is brief but appears in a context separated from other text, suggesting it could be a name in a list, contact list, or art inventory. 4H. Artists NOT Found in Redaction Databases The following artists returned zero results in both redaction databases: Picasso, Warhol, Basquiat, Hirst (Damien), Botero, Monet (only "Monet Banihashem" -- a person's name), Matisse, Chagall, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Gerhard Richter, de Kooning, Pollock (only "[email protected]"), Twombly, Klimt, Schiele, Banksy Full corpus update (2026-02-12): The zero results for these artists were an artifact of searching only redaction text layers. The full corpus contains: Matisse 84 documents, Rothko 117, Giacometti 316, Jeff Koons 373, Andres Serrano 353, Andy Warhol 96, Mondrian 75, Kirchner 166, Brancusi 40, Schwitters 75. See Report #60 revisit for complete counts. --- CATEGORY 5: GALLERIES AND ART VENUES 5A. Gallery References EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01661103 90 v2, ds10 AVEL GALLERY JUPITER FL EFTA01661003 55 v2, ds10 AVELGALLERY JUPITER F[L] EFTA01735665 0 v2, ds10 Rose Drive, Fort Lauderdale, Flo[rida] / e Gallery Building, Carrer Ester EFTA01954050 2 v2, ds10 e galleries, gallery listi[ngs] EFTA01954050 0 v2 studio in Notting Hill w EFTA02184200 0 v2, ds10 Gallery EFTA01728258 45 v2, ds10 gallery freir (Cuba context) Analysis: "AVEL GALLERY JUPITER FL" refers to a gallery in Jupiter, Florida, near Palm Beach. The "Gallery Building, Carrer Ester" reference suggests a gallery in Spain (Carrer = street in Catalan). The "galleries, gallery listings" on EFTA01954050 with a "studio in Notting Hill" reference places this in London art scene context. 5B. Phillips Exhibition EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01934389 0 v2, ds10 hard Phillips Exhibition / Loan Req[uest] EFTA01934389 0 v2, ds10 Phillips Exhibition - Loan Request EFTA01934389 0 v2, ds10 Begin forwarded message: EFTA02111899 0 v2, ds10 Phillips Exhibition - Loan Request Analysis: Two separate documents reference a "Phillips Exhibition - Loan Request" -- this is "[Ric]hard Phillips Exhibition - Loan Request." Richard Phillips is a contemporary American artist known for hyper-realistic portrait paintings. The "Loan Request" format indicates that Epstein was being asked to loan artwork he owned for a Richard Phillips exhibition, confirming Epstein owned Richard Phillips artwork. Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Expanded to 8 documents (DS9:2, DS10:2, DS11:4). The full loan agreement is now visible: Erin Cluley at Dallas Contemporary contacted Lesley Groff (Epstein staff). The exhibition was "Negation of the Universe," April-August 2014. The intermediary is now identified. 5C. Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02039071 24 v2, ds10 Washington) is a / the Museum of Modern Art, 5D.

Guggenheim (Eileen Guggenheim -- Epstein Associate) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01652757 5 v2, ds10 Eileen Guggenheim (in list of Epstein associates) EFTA01652995 13 v2, ds10 Eileen Guggenheim (same list) EFTA01653060 4 v2, ds10 Eileen Guggenheim (same list) Analysis: Eileen Guggenheim, connected to the Guggenheim family, appears repeatedly as a named Epstein associate alongside Trump, Prince Andrew, Dershowitz, Wexner, Glenn & Eva Dubin, Richard Branson, and the Maxwells. Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Guggenheim expanded from 3 redaction database records to 208 documents (DS9:90, DS10:88, DS11:30) in the full corpus. The full corpus reveals her role as an FBI witness: EFTA00269752 (FBI 302 interview, Sep 11, 2007) shows Guggenheim was NYAA Chairman, Epstein was board member 1980s-1990s, NYAA students were sent to Zorro Ranch for "art workshop on the human figure," and a victim returned from Epstein's Ohio residence "very upset." Direct correspondence (EFTA00356353, Dec 2014): Guggenheim emails Epstein: "I feel guilty -- I have forgotten to find an Academy artist for you to paint the entranceway of your house." This transforms Guggenheim from a name on a list to a documented FBI witness who continued active contact with Epstein through at least 2014 -- seven years after her FBI interview about his sexual exploitation of minors. --- CATEGORY 6: ART DEALERS AND LUXURY CONNECTIONS 6A. Gagosian, Acquavella, Pace, Zwirner, Wildenstein, Perrotin, Nahmad, Mugrabi All returned ZERO results in both redaction databases. Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Gagosian appears in 449 documents across the full corpus (DS9:243, DS10:78, DS11:128). Acquavella appears in 16 documents (DS9:10, DS11:6). The zero results in the redaction databases reflect the limited scope of searching only text layers beneath redacted areas; the full text corpus captures substantially more. 6B. Graff EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA00027559 0 v2 Graff Ilan (USANYS) EFTA01977629 0-1 v2, ds10 Scott Graff (in email from Jeanne Brennan cc: Daphne Wallace) EFTA02009455 0 v2, ds10 Jeanne Brennan / Daphne Wallace / bject: Scott Graff EFTA02016818 0 v2, ds10 Graff Analysis: "Graff Ilan (USANYS)" is a US Attorney's office reference, not the luxury dealer. "Scott Graff" appears to be a person discussed in emails involving Jeanne Brennan and Daphne Wallace (known Epstein staff). Not connected to Graff Diamonds. 6C. Atelier Meriguet (French Decorative Arts) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02116336 0 v2, ds10 www.ateliermeriguet.fr EFTA02116336 0 v2, ds10 t : Catalog Request EFTA02116336 0 v2, ds10 22 Avenu[e Foch] EFTA02116336 0 v2, ds10 Foch, Apt EFTA02116336 0 v2, ds10 2014 17:51 Analysis: SIGNIFICANT. Atelier Meriguet-Carrere is one of France's most prestigious decorative arts firms, specializing in restoration of historic interiors, gilding, and decorative painting for palaces, embassies, and luxury residences. A catalog was requested to be sent to 22 Avenue Foch -- Epstein's Paris apartment -- in 2014. This confirms Epstein was actively furnishing/decorating his Paris property with high-end decorative arts. --- CATEGORY 7: ART INSURANCE AND FINANCIAL 7A. Art Insurance EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01896117 0 v2, ds10 It's included in the art insurance payment There is no separ[ate bill] EFTA01896135 0 v2, ds10 It's included in the art insurance payment.

There is no separate bill for the bronzes EFTA01896243 0 v2, ds10 It's included in the art insurance payment. There is no separate bill for the Analysis: Confirmed that Epstein maintained a dedicated art insurance policy that covered bronze sculptures among other art. The statement that there is "no separate bill for the bronzes" (they are bundled into the art insurance payment) indicates a comprehensive art collection being insured as a portfolio. 7B. Epstein Insurance Trust EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01374876 0 v2 Cc: Daphne Cales / Subject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust ill [C] EFTA01416784 1-2 v2 Stewart Oldfield / Subject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust [I] EFTA01420713 2 v2 Subject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust [I] EFTA01420791 0 v2 Subject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust [I] EFTA01426028 2 v2 Stewart Oldfield / Subject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust [I] EFTA01432325 6 v2 ubject: RE: Epstein Insurance Trust [I] Analysis: An "Epstein Insurance Trust" is referenced in multiple emails involving Stewart Oldfield and Daphne Cales. Full corpus update (2026-02-12): Expanded from 6 documents to 1,059 documents, dominated by Deutsche Bank monthly account statements for "The 2007 Jeffrey E. Epstein Insurance Trust #3" managed by Paul Morris / Stewart Oldfield. DS10 contains 1,039 of these 1,059 documents. 7C. Appraisals EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01684466 133 v2, ds10 report and an Appraisal fo[r] $13,000,000.00, dated 07/24/2019 (re: 9 E[ast] 71[st] St[reet], N[ew] Y[or]k, NY 10021) EFTA01684602 145 v2, ds10 Request for a Title Report and an Appraisal for 358 El Brillo Way EFTA01305154 3-4 v2, ds10 Appraisal Analysis: A $13,000,000 appraisal for the 71st Street NYC mansion (dated July 24, 2019 -- just days after Epstein's arrest on July 6, 2019) and an appraisal request for 358 El Brillo Way (Palm Beach). While these are property appraisals, they would typically include contents/art as part of the valuation. --- CATEGORY 8: INTERIOR DESIGN AND DECORATION 8A. Interior Designers and Decorators EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02083874 0 v2, ds10 bject: Re: Interior Designer /Decorato[r] EFTA02086776 0 v2, ds10 ject: Re: Interior Designer Decorator EFTA01923357 0 v2, ds10 his decorator she worked w[ith] EFTA02094485 0 v2, ds10 Decorating Center at EFTA01824080 0 v2, ds10 bject: Senior Interior Designer (Upper[...] EFTA02098175 0 v2, ds10 m meeting with a Interior Designer toni[ght] EFTA01360451 0 v2, ds10 scription does it do interior design for companies?

Individuals?" suggests investigation into an interior design entity connected to Epstein. --- CATEGORY 9: FRAMING AND ART SERVICES 9A.

W Analysis: "Frame Creations" (framecreations.com) was used by Epstein's staff for framing services, including framing jerseys. "Carol" appears to be the contact at Frame Creations. 9B. Framed Items in Evidence EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA00029895 1 v2, ds10 Item 1B129 / framed photos Analysis: Evidence item 1B129, "framed photos," was seized and cataloged, likely from one of Epstein's properties. --- CATEGORY 10: RESTORATION AND CONSERVATION EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01713478 41 v2, ds10 CORDOVANO RESTORATIO[N] EFTA01747985 0 v2, ds10 Subject: Restoration Hardware: Order EFTA02122183 0 v2, ds10 bject: Restoration Hard[ware] EFTA02122381 0 v2, ds10 ject: Restoration Har[dware] EFTA02122404 0 v2, ds10 bject: Restoration Hard[ware] Analysis: "CORDOVANO RESTORATION" appears in a property investigation context (phones listed at an address).

The "DANY" reference is the Manhattan District Attorney. Given Black's position as one of the world's foremost art collectors, his relationship with Epstein may have involved art transactions or art-related financial advice. --- CATEGORY 13: WEXNER -- ART COLLECTOR AND EPSTEIN CONNECTION EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA00025533 0 v2 Wexner: Epstein investigation EFTA00026723 0 v2 CNBC; Jeffrey Epstein used $46 million charitable donation to keep alive his ties with billionaire Les Wexner EFTA01653098 14 v2, ds10 artwork she was creating of [name] for the fake lawsuit against Leslie Wexner that was going to make her famous as an artist EFTA01682081 0 v2 later told me that they had decided not to sue Wexner because he was EFTA01656173 17 v2, ds10 rned his money from Wexner (in PROMINENT NAMES investigative document) Analysis: Wexner is extensively referenced as Epstein's primary financial patron. The art connection is explicit in EFTA01653098 where someone created "artwork" for a proposed (ultimately abandoned) "fake lawsuit against Leslie Wexner." The investigative summaries note Epstein "earned his money from Wexner." --- CATEGORY 14: ZUCKERMAN (MORT ZUCKERMAN) EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01826161 0 v2, ds10 eet/ Mort Zuckerman EFTA01826186 0 v2, ds10 eet/ Mort Zuckerman EFTA01945359 0 v2, ds10 Mortimer Zuckerman EFTA01956614 0 v2, ds10 o Zuckerman Institute Dinn[er] EFTA02098332 0 v2, ds10 t Zuckerman EFTA02115417 0 v2, ds10 Boston Properties Zuckerman Mo[rt] EFTA02142111 0 v2, ds10 on from Mort Zuckerman to din[ner] EFTA02142117 0 v2, ds10 on from Mort Zuckerman to din[ner] EFTA02142548 0 v2, ds10 ion from Mort Zuckerman to dinn[er] EFTA02165712 0 v2, ds10 akfast w/Mort Zuckerman Analysis: Mort Zuckerman (media mogul, Boston Properties chairman) had multiple social engagements with Epstein (dinners, breakfasts). Epstein reportedly managed Zuckerman's finances. No explicit art references found in the Zuckerman records, but the financial relationship would have potentially included oversight of Zuckerman's assets. --- CATEGORY 15: CANVAS AND MATERIALS EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01803415 0 v2, ds10 e nee tom someone to put t e canvas on t e ce[i]l[in]g. agree w=t you EFTA02094614 1 v2, ds10 hris Ottinger/Harbor Marine Canvas Analysis: The first record -- "we need someone to put the canvas on the ceiling" -- could refer to either a canvas art installation on a ceiling or a canvas covering/fabric. Given the art context of these files, a ceiling canvas installation is plausible. Harbor Marine Canvas is a marine/boat canvas company. --- CATEGORY 16: PORTRAIT EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01802274 0 v2, ds10 udio portrait Analysis: Reference to a "studio portrait" -- likely a photographic portrait, but could be a painted portrait commission. --- CATEGORY 17: ARTISTIC LIVES AND ARTISTIC WHISTLEBLOWER EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA02130299 2 v2 Artistic Lives (in context: him to dinners or par[ties], with Jeffrey and, nners/p[arties]) EFTA00038111 1 v2 Forwarded message / om: Artistic WhistleBlower Analysis: "Artistic Lives" appears in a 2013 email about inviting someone to dinners/parties "with Jeffrey and..." -- this could be a BBC program reference or an art organization. "Artistic WhistleBlower" is the sender of a forwarded message, likely a tipster using a pseudonym. --- CATEGORY 18: MATERIALS REFERENCES EFTA Number Page Database Hidden Text (excerpt) ------------- ------ ---------- ---------------------- EFTA01682136 2 v2, ds10 MARBLE / Basswood w[ood] / LAMINATES / shutters, woven w` Analysis: This appears to be an interior finish/materials specification document listing marble, basswood, and laminate options -- likely for one of Epstein's properties. --- CATEGORY 19: NEGATIVE RESULTS (IMPORTANT ABSENCES) The following searches returned ZERO art-relevant results across both redaction databases: Category Terms Searched Redaction DB Result Full Corpus Update (2026-02-12) ---------- --------------- -------- ----------------- Major Galleries Gagosian, Acquavella, Pace Gallery, Zwirner, Wildenstein, Perrotin, Nahmad, Mugrabi NONE Gagosian: 449 docs; Acquavella: 16 docs Art Storage Freeport, free port, Geneva Freeport, Luxembourg Freeport, art storage, art inventory NONE Freeport/free port: 159 docs Art Shipping Cadogan Tate, Dietl NONE (Atelier Meriguet found) -- Major Artists Picasso, Warhol, Basquiat, Monet, Matisse, Chagall, Klimt, Schiele, Banksy, Pollock, de Kooning, Twombly, Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon, Botero, Damien Hirst, Gerhard Richter NONE Matisse: 84; Warhol: 96; many others now present Art Terms Oil on [canvas], watercolor, provenance, mural, art dealer, art advisor, art collection, art purchase, art gallery, Impressionist NONE (except where noted above) -- Financial Bull sculpture/statue, chandelier NONE -- Note (2026-02-12): The zero results for major galleries and artists were an artifact of searching only text layers beneath redacted areas.

See Reports #59 and #60 revisits for complete counts. --- CONCLUSIONS AND INVESTIGATIVE LEADS Confirmed Art Activity: Epstein owned art insured under a dedicated policy covering paintings and bronze sculptures. Rothko painting was discussed in correspondence -- possibly owned. Paintings were shipped from Paris (his Avenue Foch apartment) with framing and valuation. An invoice for Paris artwork confirms financial art transactions. Richard Phillips artwork was loaned for exhibition -- confirming ownership. Ocean's Bridge commissioned reproductions of at least one painting. Multiple paintings were at various properties: "PALMS PAINTING." (Note: "Hangar Painting" was corrected 2026-02-12 -- refers to painting the TWA Hangar building, not a painting artwork.) Paintings were received from former island staff Julie Loquidis and Brinsley Burbidge, photographers from Oregon. (Identified 2026-02-12.) A sculpture was shipped from New York to Great Island (USVI). Atelier Meriguet catalogs were requested for the Paris apartment. Sotheby's agent Christine Gibbons corresponded about El Brillo Way. Christie's correspondence in French from September 2011. Degas' "Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen" reference material was in the files. Impressionist art references (Cezanne, Renoir, Degas) in what appears to be an art reference document. Key Individuals Connected to Art: Christine Gibbons -- Sotheby's employee, El Brillo Way correspondence Leon Black -- Major art collector, extensive Epstein relationship documented Leslie Wexner -- Art collector, Epstein's primary patron Eileen Guggenheim -- Named Epstein associate; FBI witness (Sep 2007); NYAA Chairman who continued contact through 2014 (expanded 2026-02-12) Mort Zuckerman -- Regular social contact Julie Loquidis and Brinsley Burbidge -- Former LSJ employees, photographers from Oregon (identified 2026-02-12) "Carol" at Frame Creations -- Framing service provider Hela Fox / Catherine McIvern -- Christie's correspondence participants Recommended Follow-up: Obtain full unredacted versions of EFTA01896117-01896243 (art insurance emails) to determine the full scope of insured art. Investigate EFTA01786553 for details on the Rothko painting (provenance, current location). Trace the Paris painting shipment (EFTA02125762-02126033) to identify the specific work. ~~Research "Brinsley and Julie" to identify these painting sources.~~ (Resolved 2026-02-12: Julie Loquidis and Brinsley Burbidge, former LSJ staff.) Investigate the Richard Phillips Exhibition loan (EFTA01934389, EFTA02111899). Examine Leon Black's art transactions for any Epstein involvement. Investigate the Degas "Little Dancer" reference for any connection to art ownership. Follow up on the September 2011 Christie's correspondence for transaction details. --- Report generated from 165+ systematic searches across 3,438,718 total redaction records.
