Hendrick van Cleve III
(Antwerp 1525–1589)
The Tower of Babel,
oil on panel, 70 x 100 cm, framed
The present panel depicting the Tower of Babel is one of several treatments of the subject by the Flemish master Hendrick van Cleve III, whose many views of Rome, attest to a formative sojourn in Italy. Returning to Antwerp in 1551, Hendrick van Cleve became a master of the Guild of Saint Luke in his native city. Little else is recorded of his life, although his oeuvre is easily recognised, comprising topographical landscapes, along the aforementioned prospects of Rome’s architecture, both ancient and ecclesiastical.
