A pair of vandals threw tomato soup one of the art world’s most celebrated masterpieces at an art museum in London on Friday in a bizarre protest against fossil fuels.
Vincent van Gogh’s iconic “Sunflowers,” valued at nearly $85 million was undamaged in the attack at London’s National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, thanks to a glass covering. But the shocking display left museum-goers gasping and calling for security.
“Are you more concerned about the protection of a painting or the protection of our planet and people?” one of the suspects asked as shocked spectators gathered at the scene.

The vandalism or destruction of art is always an authoritarian act.
