Christie’s November 17 evening sale of Gustav Klimt’s 1915–16 landscape *Litzlbergkeller*, carrying a $60–80 million estimate and backed by a guarantee, anchors trader focus as the auction nears. The work’s strong provenance—from its 1997 record-setting sale to its recent long-term loan at Vienna’s Leopold Museum—bolsters expectations that bidding will test or surpass the estimate’s midpoint. Recent Klimt landscape results, including the $104.5 million *Birch Forest* in 2022, support momentum toward the $75–90 million bracket, while the timing near Neue Galerie’s reopening adds cultural resonance for collectors. Competitive dynamics hinge on pre-sale viewing response in New York and Hong Kong, with upside potential if multiple bidders chase the square-format Attersee scene and downside risk if broader market caution caps results near the low end.
