The painting has remained out of public view since its record 2017 auction, held in storage in Geneva or Saudi facilities with no confirmed short-term loans or displays. Saudi plans center it as the centerpiece for a major new Riyadh museum tied to Vision 2030 cultural initiatives, but that project and related Al-Ula facilities face extended timelines well beyond 2026. Recent 2024 reporting reinforced the long-term storage strategy without announcing any interim exhibitions, while past attempts at Louvre Abu Dhabi or Paris loans collapsed over attribution and display disputes. Traders see the December 31 deadline as unlikely to be met given these structural delays and the absence of any verified catalysts like museum openings or special loans.
