According to reports, a man donned a wig and posed as an elderly woman in a wheelchair before entering the Louvre art museum in Paris, France. Once he neared the priceless work of art, he reportedly threw cake at the painting and attempted to smash the bulletproof glass that protects it from just such an attack.

Video of the incident was posted on Twitter, long with the comment, “Maybe this is just nuts to me but an [sic] man dressed as an old lady jumps out of a wheel chair and attempted to smash the bullet proof glass of the Mona Lisa. Then proceeds to smear cake on the glass, and throws roses everywhere before being tackled by security.”

Another video added the comment, “Here is the moment when they take away the person who threw a cake at Mona Lisa.”

The alleged perpetrator reportedly smeared cake on the glass in an effort to raise awareness about the destruction of planet earth, witnesses claimed.

“A guy has thrown a cake at the Mona Lisa to raise awareness about the destruction of the planet,” one person explained in a tweet.

The painting was stolen in 1911 by an Italian handyman named Vincenzo Peruggia. He was not caught until two years later — and some experts believe that the theft was what truly put the famously enigmatic smile on the map.

“If a different one of Leonardo’s works had been stolen, then that would have been the most famous work in the world – not the Mona Lisa,” said Noah Charney, art history professor and author.

“There was nothing that really distinguished it per se, other than it was a very good work by a very famous artist – that’s until it was stolen. The theft is what really skyrocketed its appeal and made it a household name,” he said.

The painting has been the target of attempted vandalism in the past as well, according to a report from Marca.com.

“A man threw sulfuric acid at it in the 1950s, which had an effect on the painting, and a Bolivian student hit it with a stone. A woman in a wheelchair sprayed red paint on her wheelchair while she was at an exhibition in Tokyo in 1974, expressing her dissatisfaction with the lack of access ramps,” the outlet reported.

Additionally, in 2009, a Russian tourist threw tea at the painting.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
