Protesters throw soup at Mona Lisa painting in Paris
Protesters have thrown soup at the Mona Lisa painting in the Louvre in Paris.
Footage
shows two women crossing a boundary between the painting and the
public, with one of them throwing soup towards the famous painting.
Both women are wearing a shirt with Riposte Alimentaire - which
translates as food response - written on the front, referring to a
climate activist group.
A glass window protects the Mona Lisa, meaning the soup would not have covered the painting itself.
The 16th Century paining by Leonardo da Vinci is one of the world's most famous artworks, and is held at the Louvre in Paris.
