Van Gogh painting 'souped' hours after protesters jailed

Phoebe Plummer, 23, and Anna Holland, 22, were jailed for a combined three years and eight months at Southwark Crown Court for the exact same protest that took place in October 2022.

The three protesters “souped” not just Van Gogh’s Sunflowers painting – which is protected by glass – but also one other painting nearby yesterday. There were cries of “No”, “Stop” and “Why are you doing that” as they poured soup onto the paintings, before removing their jumpers to reveal that Just Stop Oil was written on their T-shirts.
