Environmental activists throw soup over van Gogh’s Sunflowers

London’s National Gallery says action caused ‘some minor damage to the frame but the painting is unharmed’.

I feel like a van Gogh painting was a poorly picked target but also think van Gogh himself would approve.

    I’m assuming there’s fucking glass so they didn’t actually get it on the painting (correct me if I’m wrong!), just a frame.

    Yep. The London National Gallery is saying the painting is glazed, so the only damage the soup did was to the frame.
