» Woman fined for kissing painting
- this story is linked to more for the sake of completeness than anything else
- the Stumblng Tumblr’s mentioned before the woman who was the subject of legal proceedings in France for kissing a painting in an art gallery and leaving a lipstick smear on it
- well, the proceedings are now concluded
- she was ordered to pay 1.5K euros to the owner of the painting and .5K euros to the gallery owner
- she was also ordered to pay 1 euro to the artist who painted the painting
- if this was a publicity stunt by her, she’s probably got her money’s worth; only 2K euros (plus legal costs, if any) to have herself the subject, more than once, of widespread coverage in France and even beyond
