The appeal of the Italian Museum after breaking the chair covered with crystallization

An Italian Museum called on pastors to “respect art” after a couple was depicted by breaking a chair covered with hundreds of sparkling crystals.

Footage released by Bazo Mavi, in Verona, shows a man and a woman taking pictures of each other while pretending to sit on the so -called “Van Gog” chair.

Then it seems that the man slip and falls to the chair, and crushed it under it.

Officials say that the couple fled the museum before the employees noticed what happened.

Since then, they have reported the police about the husband, who were not recognized.

“Sometimes we lose our brains to take a picture, and we do not think about the consequences,” says museum director Vanessa Carlon.

“Of course this was an accident, but these two people left without talking to us – this is not an accident.” “This is a nightmare for any museum.”

BBC understands this incident in April. Palazzo Maffei released footage on June 12.

The chair was built by Italian artist Nicolas Paula and is surrounded by jewels with Swarovski crystals made of broken polished glass. It was named after Vincent Van Gogh as a honor to the Dutch artist A simple chair drawing.

Bolla is somewhat valid, as the museum refused to provide an estimate of its value upon its request by the BBC.

Carlota Minigazo, an art historian at the Mavi Palace, says that – although he looks strong – his frame is often hollow and kept with frustration.

“On the chair there was a note warning of people not to touch, and of course it is placed on the base of the statue, so it is quite clear that it is not a real chair,” says Ms. Menzao.

The legs and the main seat have been broken, but Mrs. Minigazo says that a “great job” was done to restore the piece and is now in place.

Palazzo Maffei opened in 2020 and has 650 pieces displayed, including paintings written by Picasso and ancient Egyptian art.

Mrs. Carlon says that most visitors consider, and she hopes this version of CCTV shots will become a “negative episode”.

Instead, you want to highlight that “anyone must enter artistic places, museums or churches, wherever art is shown, in a more respectable way.”

“Art and beloved must be respected because it is very fragile,” she added.
