Climate activists glue hands to Goya frames at Prado museum in Madrid


Madrid (AFP) – Two climate activists from the group “Futuro Vegetal” each glue a hand to the frames of two paintings by Spanish master Francisco Goya at the Prado museum in Madrid, as seen on images distributed by the group. The protest did not damage either painting, but the protesters scrawled “+1,5°C” on the wall between the two artworks in reference to the Paris Agreement target of capping warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
