The Saudi-owned Salvator Mundi, the record $450 million Leonardo-attributed canvas unseen publicly since its 2017 Christie's sale, underpins the market's strong "No" consensus at 88.5% implied probability. After the Louvre Abu Dhabi exhibition was postponed indefinitely and a planned 2019 Louvre appearance fell through over attribution and display disputes, the work entered storage—reportedly in Geneva—while Saudi Vision 2030 museum projects in Al-Ula and Riyadh remain years from completion. No official announcements or credible reports indicate any public unveiling before year-end, and historical patterns show the owners prioritizing controlled long-term placement over short-term loans. Traders view the compressed timeline and lack of momentum as decisive barriers.
