A brazen act of … sitting? A pair of photo-stunting tourists collapsed Italian artist Nicola Bolla’s chair sculpture “Van Gogh” (2007—2008), which is decorated with hundreds of Swarovski crystals, at Verona’s Palazzo Maffei, according to surveillance footage shared by the museum. The incident occurred in April, according to reports, but footage of the incident was not released until last Thursday, June 12. The video shows one visitor hovering over the crystal-coated artwork in a seated position while the other snapped a photo. The chair’s front legs appeared to snap, sending the tourist backward. The two individuals then proceeded to hurriedly walk out of the gallery. The faces of both tourists are blurred in the footage, and they have reportedly not been identified.
