If you close it it should be removed from the image list. The only way I can find to have an empty Gimp image window 1 while still having an image in the Images list 2 and showing its layers in the Layers list 3 is to load/create it from a script. If you create an image from the GUI (File ➤ Open or File ➤ New), closing its associated image window(s) removes it from Gimp and it no longer appears in the image list.
