Environmental protesters have glued themselves to the glass protecting Sandro Botticelli’s Primavera which is on display at an art gallery in Florence.
The activists, from the climate activist group Ultima Generazione (Last Generation), said the protest was the first in “a new season of actions” targeting museums. It appeared inspired by Just Stop Oil activists in the UK who recently conducted a similar campaign of protests in art galleries.
Two protesters stuck their palms to the exhibit at the Uffizi gallery beforehand, with the help of a third, unfurling a banner reading “Ultima Generazione No Gas No Carbone (Last Generation, No Gas, No Coal).”
A man and two women, who had paid for tickets to get into the gallery, were taken away by police, according to the Italian news agency Ansa.
No damage was caused to the painting, Ansa cited the museum as saying. Botticelli’s 650-year-old Primavera (meaning Spring) is one of the world’s most famous paintings. The Uffizi gallery’s website describes the painting as “a celebration of love, peace, and prosperity”.

Low-lifes
Time to redesign these galleries.
Crazed libtard climate zombies 🤪
Feed them to the lions
Did anyone ever tell you that you have the face of a Botticelli and the body of a Degas?
Taken away an beaten to a pulp, i hope.
The Uffizi is one of the world’s greatest art museums. This should not be tolerated.
Now, do you unglue them or let them die of thirst, stuck to the glass?
This is self-sacrifice for their god Tellus Mater. Soon self-flagellation will be incorporated into the liturgy and become consecrated by Jorge Bergoglio as a new sacrament.

No gas, no coal, no glue.
Leave them there. Stop freeing the morons who do these types of things

Amputation seems to be the best way to protect priceless artifacts like these.
‘Just Stop Oil Painting’ Activists? *SNORT*
What’s this obsession with GLUE? Is that something ‘sexual’ that I missed somewhere along the line?
And here I thought I’d seen it all. ;)
I wonder if there’s some way to freeze-dry the severed hands while leaving them glued to the glass.
Whack off the hands with a machete or chain saw and leave the hands on the glass as a warning to others. Us no painkillers.
Yes. Let them bask in the stench after they fill their pants.
Sawzall to the wrist.
Problem solved
They should have decoys and then have a Moron Display
