The wave of protests in museums around the world, where tomato soup and puree have been thrown to damage works of art, splash the English Royal House. This time, the victim has been King Carlos III, since his wax replica that is in the Madame Tussauds museum was attacked by two Just Stop Oil militants.
Both people threw cakes at the face of the figure of the monarch, while claiming the fight against climate change. In the images you can see how it seemed that they approached the figures to take a photo when they suddenly took off their jackets, showing t-shirts with the name of the organization and threw chocolate cakes at the new king.
Eilidh McFaddden and Tom Johnson, 20 and 29 years old respectively, have been the people who have carried out these acts, according to the association. In the publication that they have shared to vindicate what happened, they have pointed out that this has happened before the UN conference on Climate Change is held, which begins on November 6 and to which Carlos III has already said that he will not attend.
These acts are added to those of last day 14 at the National Gallery in London, in which two Just Stop Oil militants threw tomato soup on Van Gogh's Sunflowers and the one in Potsdam, in which two activists from a German group They threw mashed potatoes at one of the paintings in Monet's Haystacks series.
