One of the world’s famous pieces of art Mona Lisa was attacked by a visitor at the Louvre museum in Paris on Sunday, May 29, 2022. The culprit appeared to have worn a wig and approached the painting in a wheelchair before throwing a piece of cake at it, reports said.

“A visitor simulated a disability in order to use a wheelchair to approach the work, which was installed in a secure display case. The Louvre applied its usual procedures for people with reduced mobility, allowing them to admire this major work,” a statement by Louvre Museum read.

Why did someone smear cake on the Mona Lisa?

An attacker disguised himself in a wheelchair and threw a piece of cake at the Mona Lisa painting in Louvre Museum just for publicity stunts. Other sources also claim that the attacker was a climate activist who thought it wise to protest in such a manner. His actions were caught on camera and he was escorted by security at the museum.
