Two protesters were arrested after breaking the protective glass panel.
In this photo provided by Just Stop Oil on Monday, Nov. 6, 2023, activists hit the protective glass on a painting at the National Portrait Gallery in London. Two climate change protesters smashed a protective glass panel covering a famous Diego Velázquez oil painting at London's National Gallery, the group Just Stop Oil said Monday. The two activists targeted Velázquez's “The Toilet of Venus,” also known as “The Rokeby Venus," with small hammers.
The group said Monday that the two activists chose to target Velázquez's 17th-century oil painting, one of the Spanish artist's most celebrated masterpieces, because it was previously slashed as part of the suffragette movement calling for women's rights in 1914. The room was reopened shortly afterward with another painting replacing the Velázquez where it was hung, the museum added.
Police said officers also arrested dozens of other Just Stop Oil protesters on Monday who were “slow marching” and obstructing traffic in central London's Whitehall as part of their civil disobedience strategy.
