Two protesters are reported to have hurled soup at the bullet-proof glass protecting Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘Mona Lisa’ in Paris, demanding the right to “healthy and sustainable food”.
It is the latest attack on the masterpiece in the French capital’s Louvre museum, after someone threw a custard pie at it in May 2022, but its thick glass casing ensured it came to no harm.
