Protesters Throw Soup At Da Vinci Painting - Paris
File photo dated May 19, 2021 of Leonardo Da Vinci's Mona Lisa in Paris, France on May 28, 2013. Protesters have thrown soup at the glass-protected Mona Lisa painting in Paris on Sunday. The 16th Century paining by Leonardo da Vinci is one of the world's most famous artworks, and is held at the Louvre in Paris. It sits behind bulletproof glass so it is unlikely to have been damaged. A video showed two protesters demanding the right to "healthy and sustainable food", saying "our agricultural system is sick". The Mona Lisa has been behind safety glass since the early 1950s, when it was damaged by a visitor who poured acid on it. In 2019, the museum said it had installed a more transparent form of bulletproof glass to protect it. Photo by Aurore Marechal/ABACAPRESS.COM
