Artwork information Artist: Pieter Bruegel the Elder Title: The Tower of babel Date: 1563 Style: Flemish Mannerism Provenance: Collection of Emperor Rudolf ll Physical Dimension: w155 x h114 cm Type: Painting = the Elder I chose this artwork because I liked all the detail in it and the closer you look the more you see. I have never heard of this artwork before or heard of the artists name. It really popped out because I liked how the building looked and the landscape around it. I have never heard of the tower of Babel before either.
The artwork is about the research on the tower of babel when they are building it. The artist created it because he was fascinated and he left a whole in the front and some on the bottom to show that they are building it. Yes because you can see the workers when you zoom in and the building is still unfinished and has very good detail in it to see what is going on. It definitely is also an eye catcher and it is fun to look was with all the details. It is put together nicely and neat.
