Part of completing the Museum on the island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is collecting all of the art pieces via Redd. However, this can be difficult to do as Redd will sell both fake and real pieces. We'll go over all of the different paintings and statues, as well as how to tell the real ones from the fakes. If there are no fakes, we'll just go over the real-world name of each piece.
