Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa was the target of eco-activism yesterday, having been pelted with soup in an effort to raise awareness for "healthy and sustainable food". Fortunately, the security glass did its job and the painting was unhurt. I'm sure the ever-present queues of tourists had to find something else to take a selfie in front of while the cleanup was taking place!
