Original Note:
For context: the painting itself was protected by a layer of glass and was not damaged. However, the 17th century Italian frame, which is also considered a valuable work of art, has suffered damage estimated at around £10,000. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/just-stop-oil-van-gogh-soup-national-gallery-criminal-damage-court-case-b1172169.html https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/sep/27/just-stop-oil-activist-phoebe-plummer-jailed-throwing-soup-van-gogh-sunflowers
