Monet painting target of soup attack: activists strike again. Activists from the group “Riposte Alimentaire” threw soup at a Monet painting.

The same group was also responsible for throwing soup at the Mona Lisa in the Louvre in Paris. Despite the attack, the oil painting is likely to have remained undamaged or at least without major damage. It is protected by a glass pane. Nevertheless, the condition of the painting will be checked to be on the safe side.
