Just Stop Oil Activists Jailed for Two Years and 20 Months for Soup Attack on Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers'
Sep 27, 2024, 03:58 PM
Phoebe Plummer, 23, and Anna Holland, 22, activists from Just Stop Oil, have been sentenced to prison for throwing soup over Vincent van Gogh's 'Sunflowers' painting at London's National Gallery in October 2022. Plummer received a two-year sentence, while Holland was sentenced to 20 months. The activists were found guilty of criminal damage in July at Southwark Crown Court. The incident, which caused damage to the painting's antique frame but did not harm the artwork itself, was condemned as a 'criminally idiotic' stunt. The combined sentence amounts to three years and eight months. Hours after the sentencing, three more Just Stop Oil activists threw soup over two additional Van Gogh paintings in the 'Poets and Lovers' exhibition at the National Gallery, resulting in their arrest.
