Selfie Attempt Results In Damage To Artwork By Salvador Dali And Francisco Goya

A picture is worth a thousand words, but what about a selfie? A group of women in Yekaterinburg, Russia, may find out soon after one of them tried to take a selfie on October 27 and accidentally knocked over a structure at the International Arts Center Main Avenue. The structure was carrying two works of art, according to the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) and state-run news agency TASS. A surveillance video provided by MIA shows three people looking at art in the gallery when a structure carrying two works of art falls over. A person is seen behind the fallen structure. The damaged artworks, according to TASS, include a Francisco Goya etching from the Los Caprichos series and Salvador Dali’s interpretation of it.
