Two activists who pasted an image of a Palestinian mother and child over a Picasso at London’s National Gallery have been convicted of criminal damage.
The pair carried out the protest at the museum in London, where the work by Pablo Picasso was covered by the image. The action drew attention as part of a wider act of activism.
The conviction marks the legal outcome of the incident, which has been linked to the group Youth Demand. The case falls within ongoing scrutiny of protest tactics and the law.
