Again the work of art Mona Lisa was attacked by a group of activists. The armored glass received all the tomato soup that two environmental activists threw at France’s Louvre to promote “the right to healthy and sustainable food,” according to a note from AFP.
The most famous painting in the world, also known as La Gioconda, which has been hanging behind protective glass since 2005, has been the victim of vandalism several times. For example, in May 2022 it was the target of a cream cake.
As soon as this event occurred, the museum was evacuated while Leonardo da Vinci’s painting was cleaned.
The action was claimed in a press release sent to AFP by a French group called “riposte Alimentaire” (food response).
“What’s more important? “Art or the right to healthy and sustainable food?”the two activists asked in front of the painting.
The group described throwing soup as “the starting signal of a campaign of civil resistancewith a clear requirement that benefits everyone: the social security of sustainable food.”
In recent months, several activists have taken actions against works in various museums around the world.
