#36: What Not to Do at an Art Gallery
On his very first day, a security guard somehow managed to ruin a £740,000 painting. How, you ask? Brace yourselves for this one – he decided to grab a pen and draw eyes on the faceless figures of the artwork. I can only imagine the sheer panic that ensued when the artist’s vision was so unexpectedly altered.
But hey, let’s give this security guard a little credit for his enthusiasm, albeit misguided. Who knew a simple doodle could turn a valuable painting into an unintentional comedy show? So the next time you find yourself bored at work, remember this cautionary tale – leave the art restoration to the professionals, folks.
