Background
Alberto Pinto (died 2012) was a prominent French interior designer known for his work on luxury residences, private jets, and yachts for an elite international clientele. He operated through his firm Cabinet Alberto Pinto, headquartered at 11 rue d'Aboukir, 75002 Paris. Multiple documents describe him as a 'French decorator' who had 'worked for Jacques Chirac and the royal families of Jordan and Saudi Arabia' (d-34595, d-28674, d-23993). His firm continued to operate after his death under Linda Pinto.
Pinto's connection to Jeffrey Epstein was primarily professional: he served as the interior designer for Epstein's luxury properties, most notably Epstein's New York townhouse. Vanity Fair-sourced profiles describe the townhouse's 'splendor, much of which reflects the work of the French decorator Alberto Pinto' (d-34595, d-28674, d-23993, kaggle-ho-017773). The professional relationship appears to have spanned at least from 2001 to Pinto's death in 2012, with Epstein's firm subsequently maintaining contact with the Pinto firm through Linda Pinto. No allegations of wrongdoing in connection with Epstein have been made against Alberto Pinto.
