The late British physicist is seen lounging next to the women on what appears to be a sun-soaked tropical island.
It is currently not known where or when the picture was taken, and the two women have had their identities redacted.
The picture was part of the more than 3 million documents released in the latest tranche of Epstein Files shared by the US Justice Department last month.
Hawking, who died in 2018, features several times in the files and has previously been pictured on Epstein’s Island, ‘Little St James’.
In March 2006, he attended a conference there, which was reportedly funded by Epstein.
It is important to note that appearing in the so-called Epstein Files does not imply any wrongdoing.
Before this, Hawking was allegedly pictured twice on the Island.
On one visit, Epstein is said to have modified his submarine in order to give the scientist a tour of the Island’s seabed.
Despite visiting the island, Hawking was never pictured alongside the infamous sex trafficker.
