The second time he visits, you'll have to talk to him in order to get permission to enter his boat, which will be docked at the "secret" beach on the north side of your island; after that, on the days he visits, you can simply enter his boat without speaking to him first. An icon representing his boat will appear on your map on the days Redd visits.

When on Redd's boat, you'll be able to inspect the art before you buy it--which is where the images below will come in handy. Each piece of art, regardless of whether it's genuine or not, costs 4, bells.

You can only buy one piece of art per day, but you can buy art on friends' islands, and friends can buy art on your island as long as they haven't already bought a piece of art somewhere else that day.

This is useful for the occasions when Redd is selling two pieces of legitimate art, which is entirely possible! And since Redd visits randomly, he won't always visit your friends on the same day he visits you, which means you can coordinate with your friends to buy art on each other's islands and speed up your art-collection process. There's a good chance you'll recognize at least some of the art on sale, and for the ones you don't recognize, we've included details about the real-life art and artists below.

Colors, facial features, clothing, and more might be incorrect. However, there are some paintings for which there is no fake version at all , so if it looks right, there's a chance it is.

Below are side-by-side images of the real and fake art that Jolly Redd sells. Paintings are in alphabetical order from the top, followed by statues and artifacts, and we've indicated those pieces that have no fake version as well. There is a complete list of all the art and a text description of the fake version in the table at the bottom of this article; we're working to add all the images over the coming days. The flowers are purple in the fake; in the real detailed painting, they are blue.

There is also vertical text and an icon on the left side of the real painting. The woman should only take up two-thirds of the height of the graceful painting. In the fake, she's much taller.
