At first glance, the painting didn't look all that spectacular. Nevertheless, the auction house opened the bidding at $10 million. Rumors In 2019, over a year after the initial purchase, nobody could find any trace of the painting. Of course, there were rumors. One popular rumor said Salvator Mundi was aboard the crown prince's yacht, which has more than enough room to store the 27-by-19-inch frame. Trillion Dollar Man Experts estimate the personal wealth of the Saudi Royal Family at $100 billion. Overall, there are around 2,000 extended members of the family who are directly involved in running the Saudi Arabian government, with King Salman and his son, Prince Salman at the top. Attribution vs Partial Attribution In June of 2018, around a year before the painting went missing, Salvator Mundi was carefully examined by a lab in the Louvre. Every inch of the painting was scanned using X fluorescence technology, leaving no painted layer or brushstroke up to chance. Prado Downgrade The Prado museum of art classifies Da Vinci's paintings into two distinct categories: those by Leonardo and those attributed to him. The first category is exclusively for pieces the museum believes were created by Da Vinci and only Da Vinci. As Much As Possible The New York auction house did some unusual things to prepare the auction of Salvador Mundi. Instead of selling the painting in their Old Masters section, they put Salvator Mundi in their Post-War and contemporary auction, the most popular auction at Christie's.
