Climate activists in Spain glued their hands to famous paintings by Francisco de Goya in Madrid's Prado museum on Saturday. 

A video posted to the Twitter account of the campaign group Futuro Vegetal showed a docent asking visitors not to take pictures of the scene. 

The impacted works – from the 18th and 19th centuries – include the artists "La Maja Vestida" and "La Maja Desnuda": The Clothed Maja and the Naked Maja. 

A temperature was painted on the wall between the two works: "+1.5 C"

"Last week the UN recognized the impossibility of keeping us below the limit of 1.5 Celsius (set in the 2016 Paris climate agreement). We need change now," a tweet with a photo of the pair said. 

The museum said its paintings had not been damaged and that the graffiti was painted over.

"We condemn the use of the museum as a place to make a political protest of any kind," it said.

Police and Futuro Vegetal said two people had been arrested.
