Rick Gaehl on Nostr: I came face to face with a whole room full of works by Pieter Bruegel the Elder ...
I came face to face with a whole room full of works by Pieter Bruegel the Elder whilst I was in Vienna recently. I can stand and look at his paintings for ages - absorbing all the fascinating detail.
This one is The Tower of Babel, painted in around 1563. There is a very similar painting in Rotterdam, but this one is much the bigger of the two.
