The Tower of Babel (after Pieter Bruegel the Elder) 

"The Tower of Babel (after Pieter Bruegel the Elder)" is a painting by Pieter Brueghel the Younger, a Flemish artist who was born in 1564 and died in 1638. The painting, a copy of his father's famous work, depicts the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, where humanity's attempt to reach heaven through a grand tower is thwarted by God. The painting portrays a bustling cityscape, filled with people and activity, while the tower itself dominates the composition. The scene is a mix of realism and fantasy, with details of daily life interwoven with the biblical narrative. The work demonstrates Brueghel the Younger's skill as a painter and his ability to capture the human condition and its interaction with the divine.
