Two Vincent van Gogh “Sunflowers” masterpieces were damaged by soup-tossing climate protesters in London Friday — after eco-activists were sentenced for using the same tactic two years

A judge said he hoped to deter protests when he handed down lengthy terms for the two activists, who dumped soup on the painting in 2022. Later that day, activists did it again.

Just Stop Oil has thrown soup over two of Vincent Van Gogh’s Sunflowers paintings in “a sign of defiance” after two of their members were jailed for a similar protest.
