The protective glass is dotted with an orange liquid. The table of The Mona Lisa, exhibited at the Louvre Museum in Paris, was doused with soup by two environmental activists on Sunday January 28, according to a video filmed by independent journalist Clément Lanot. The images show that the world’s most famous painting appears to have suffered no damage, since it was the armored glass that was soiled and not the canvas itself.
In the images, we see one of the activists wearing a t-shirt from the Food Fight movement, which calls for the use of “civil resistance” For “build a just and resilient society”. They justified their action by their desire to promote in particular “the right to healthy and sustainable food”noted an AFP journalist.
