A pair of British climate activists glued their hands to the frame of a Vincent van Gogh painting at a London gallery Thursday to protest the government’s climate policies.
The duo – Louis McKechnie and Emily Brocklebank – are supporters of the activist group, "Just Stop Oil," which engages in publicity stunts to bring the public’s attention to climate change.
McKechnie, 21, and Brocklebank, 24, glued themselves to Van Gogh’s 1889 painting, "Peach Trees in Blossom, which hangs at the Courtauld Gallery at Somerset House in London.
