The new Animal Crossing New Horizons 1.2.0 update for April is here as of this morning. Two new characters have been introduced into the game: Jolly Redd and Leif. Jolly Redd is a traveling art dealer who sells things like painting and statues, but not all of them are real. This guide shows you all of the real paintings and statues from Jolly Redd in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
How to get Jolly Redd
For a quick summary of how to get Jolly Redd to show up, you’ll need to first talk to Blathers. Time Travel a day or two or wait patiently, and you’ll find Redd walking around your town. Talk to him and he will sell you a painting which you will need to give to Blathers. Blathers will then remodel the museum, and you can talk to Redd again at which point he will become your friend.
Whenever you see Jolly Redd’s boat come to shore, you can approach it and talk to Redd. He will purchase one piece of art per day from him. Redd also has unique furniture for sale from time to time. There’s one catch: he will sometimes try and trick you into buying counterfeit art. That’s where our guide will come in handy. Feel free to bookmark this page and reference it to know which paintings and statues are real.

Real Statues in Animal Crossing New Horizons
Motherly Statue – Musei Capitolini
The fake Motherly Statue has a tongue sticking out of the mouth. Keep an eye on the mouth and you will be able to spot the difference.
Mystic Statue – Bust of Nefertiti
Here’s what the real Bust of Nefertiti should look like.
Informative Statue – Rosetta Stone
Apparently, the fake Rosetta Stone in New Horizons is blue. It shouldn’t be difficult to spot the real one.
Beautiful Statue – Venus de Milo by Alexandros of Antioch
The fake version of the Beautiful Statue will have a necklace or collar around the neck. Pay attention to that to spot the fake.
Robust Statue – Discobolus
The fake version of the Discobolus apparently has a loop around the disc, which makes it look like he’s holding a shield.
Familiar Statue – The Thinker by Auguste Rodin
There is no fake version of The Thinker statue in Animal Crossing New Horizon.
Valiant Statue – Nike of Samothrace
The fake version of the Valiant Statue will be angled a little differently than the real one. It’s only a slight difference and can be hard to notice.
Gallant Statue – David by Michelangelo
The fake version of the Gallant Statue will have some cloth or some sort of material by the right hand of David.
Great Statue – King Kamehameha I
There is no fake of the King Kamehameha I by Thomas Ridgeway Gould in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
Rock-head Statue – Olmec Colossal Head
The fake version of the Rock-head Statue has a slight smile on its face. Pay attention to the mouth to distinguish between the real and fake pieces.
Ancient Statue – Jomon Period Dogu Figurine Shakoki-dogu
Pay attention to the head on this one. The fake version of this figurine will have antenna-looking ears on its head.
Warrior Statue – Terracotta Army
The fake-looking statue will be holding a shovel, so make sure to look out for that.
Tremendous Statue – Houmuwu Ding
The fake looking Tremendous Statue will have a lid over the top of it.
