A bold piece of protest art emerged unexpectedly on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., capturing attention both in person and on social media platforms. An anonymous artist has erected a statue reminiscent of a famous scene from the movie Titanic, featuring former U.S. President Donald Trump alongside convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, positioned on a replica of the ship's bow. Videos showcasing the installation quickly spread online after its debut early Tuesday morning.
As reported by a major news outlet, the towering sculpture, nearly 12 feet tall, was coated in gold spray paint, depicting Trump standing behind Epstein while gazing towards the Washington Monument. The duo mimics the iconic pose of Jack and Rose from the film on the ill-fated vessel.
Attached to the base of the statue were plaques stating: “The tragic love story between Jack and Rose was built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches. This monument honors the bond between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, a friendship seemingly built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches.”
In addition to the statue, ten banners were displayed between the sculpture and the United States Capitol, each featuring images of Trump and Epstein together, along with the slogan “Make America Safe Again.” The banners also included the emblem of the U.S. Department of Justice, albeit with the word “Justice” redacted.
This installation appeared without any prior notice and coincides with renewed interest in recently released documents related to the Epstein case. The artwork also comes at a time when Trump is under renewed scrutiny regarding his alleged ties to Epstein, who has been accused of operating a child sex trafficking and prostitution ring.
The piece is thought to be created by Secret Handshake, an anonymous collective known for their politically charged sculptures placed around Washington without warning. Last September, the group unveiled another statue outside the U.S. Capitol depicting Trump and Epstein holding hands, which was removed shortly after its installation.
