Yesterday, Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘Mona Lisa’ painting was harmed in the Louvre. An unknown man in the clothes of an old woman sitting in a wheelchair approached the canvas and tried to break the protective glass. After the failure, he threw a cake on the legendary painting of Da Vinci.

‘Think of the planet Earth. There are people who are destroying the Earth. Think about it. Artists tell you. ‘Think of the Earth,’ shouted the man.

Museum security arrested him. The man’s identity has been found out. ‘Mona Lisa’, fortunately, did not suffer, as it is protected by protective glass.

Le Parisien newspaper reports that the Louvre Museum of Art will file a lawsuit against a visitor who threw a cake on the painting.

According to the publication, the 24-year-old boy is now in a psychiatric hospital. Doctors have yet to find out whether it is possible to arrest him on medical grounds.

The man explained his action as an attempt to protect the world.
