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.

Poor bastard; I hope his insurance was not cancelled. /S

That “artwork” was going to become worthless next Monday, anyway.

Trove as in treasure or heap as in trash ? Pile as in dung ?

Oh noes! What a blow to western culture (NOT!).

That could be a Babylon Bee headline, and still might be.

Once Joe is out of office all of Hunter’s art becomes worthless.

Wasn’t that obvious?

In Third World countries they burn dung for fuel - of course they don’t claim it’s worth millions of dollars.

More interesting than the fate of Hunter Biden’s paintings is the fact that the man who was storing these pictures had his home miraculously survive the fires. The same seeming miracles occurred with respect to the mansions of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. Coincidence?

“ That “artwork” was going to become worthless next Monday, anyway.”

It started tanking in value on 6 November.

So his house is okay, but the “artwork” was destroyed. How convenient.

His work still has some value due to the frames. They ain’t cheap.

The greatest artworks ever in history have been lost? It’s amazing how much artistic talent can be in one person who is also was one of the highest paid oil/gas industry executives in the world.

Who appraised it?

[Karliner]

I’m supposed to care?

[armourenthusiast]

Can anyone help me? How do you use “insurance and IRS fraud” in the same sentence? Thanks.

[Kazan]

At least something good came out of the fires.

Grifters gotta grift!

valued at “millions of dollars,”

Certainly no insurance company would insure that at anything over the cost of the frames, maybe $1000 or so.
