Hunter Biden has reportedly lost hundreds of his treasured artworks in the Los Angeles wildfires.
According to The New York Post, Hunter’s artworks went up in flames as wildfires continued to ravage the city, leaving thousands of properties in its wake.
The report states:
A trove of nearly 200 artworks by Hunter Biden has been destroyed — one of the casualties of the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles, The Post has learned.
The controversial art had been in storage near the Pacific Palisades home of Hunter’s Hollywood attorney Kevin Morris and is valued at “millions of dollars,” a source close to the Biden family said.
Morris, who loaned the first son nearly $5 million to help pay a tax bill and has been financing a documentary on him, lives in a sprawling five-bedroom, six-bathroom home which is among the few houses still intact in the posh neighborhood, The Post can confirm.
A lawyer for Hunter Biden, who is a self-taught artist who turned to painting while in recovery from drug addiction, did not immediately return a request for comment.
Hunter’s ventures into the art world have long raised eyebrows for their sky-high valuations and consequent sales.
His abstract and mixed-media pieces have been sold for prices ranging from $75,000 to $500,000, figures that are more likely due to his family connections than his artistic talent.
In fact, many of his buyers have since been revealed to have been purchased by Democratic donors and other wealthy allies of the Biden family.
The most prominent of these buyers was Morris, who bought 11 works of Hunter’s art for $875,000.
Morris also previously covered $2 million in Hunter’s unpaid tax bills taxes o a $50,000 donation to Joe Biden’s campaign in 2020.
Last month, local landlord Shaun Maguire claimed that Hunter owes him $300,000 in back pay rent and had tried to pay him with artwork made of his own feces.
“Hunter was our tenant in Venice, CA. Didn’t pay rent for over a year. Tried to pay w/ art made from his own feces,” Maguire explained.
“Absolute shit bag,” he added.
