Babel"小"塔,c. 1563,位于鹿特丹的博伊曼斯·范贝宁根博物馆. 他们描绘了巴别尔塔的建造,根据"圣经"中的"创世纪之书",这座塔是一座由统一,单一语言的人类所建造的塔,作为他们成就的标志. 布鲁格尔对塔的建筑的描绘,有无数的拱门和罗马工程的其他例子,刻意地回想起罗马克洛斯厄姆,当时的基督徒认为罗马克洛斯厄姆既是傲慢的象征,也是被迫害的象征. 布鲁格尔的绘画似乎将塔的最终失败归结于工程困难,而不是由突然,神通导致的语言差异. 虽然乍一看该塔似乎是一连串稳定的同心柱,但经过更仔细的检查,显然没有任何地层处于真正的水平;相反,该塔是作为上升的螺旋而建. 然而,画作中的工人已经将拱门垂直地建到斜地上,从而使得拱门不稳定,一些拱门已经可以看见倒塌了. 也许更令人不安的是,在建造高地层之前,塔的地基和地底层尚未完成。
