Now, players could be hesitating to purchase this famous piece of art from Redd, considering the character is notorious for selling fake pieces of art. Players purchasing this renowned piece of art from Redd in Animal Crossing: New Horizons should be wary. There is a phony version of this artwork in the title, so players will need to be on the lookout for the part of the fake version that will give away that it is the fake.
