UK police charge two women after soup thrown at van Gogh's 'Sunflowers'The incident causes minor damage to the frame but left the painting unharmed. How were they able to bring refreshments/liquid inside the museum. I say its the fault of the guards or custodians. They neglected their duties and jobs to check what guests take with them inside the museum. It stopped being a protest when they broke the law. I only know of ISIS which destroys culture and history due to their extreme beliefs, they are perpetuating this barbarism. They might not get this but it will not endear people to their cause but who can truly know their motives It is right and just to prosecute them to the full extent of the law!
