An environmentalist activist was arrested today after an attack on Claude Monet's famous painting “Poppies” at the Musée d'Orsay. Video by Riposte alimentaire, responsible for a series of art attacks, posted on X shows a woman posing as a “citizen soldier” sticking a red apocalypse poster sticker to the impressionist painting of a poppy landscape. “This nightmarish picture before us, this is what awaits us if no alternative is implemented! At +4°C, it's hell that awaits us,” cried the woman. The museum's management announced that the painting was restored, that the exhibition was open to the public and that it would file a lawsuit. The Riposte alimentaire organization that fights for sustainable food has carried out several similar attacks in recent months. She has to her credit the attack on Gioconda in the Louvre, Monet's “Spring” in the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon, Delacroix's “Liberty Leads the People” in the Louvre.
