EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Tower of Babel, Jan Luyken, Willem Goeree, 1690" we are transported back to a time when languages and communication were in chaos. The image depicts a scene from the biblical story found in Genesis 11, where people on Earth attempted to build a towering structure known as the Tower of Babel. As we observe the intricate details captured by Quint Lox, it becomes evident that the ambitious project was hampered by an inability to understand one another's language. The result is a scuffle among individuals who can no longer communicate effectively. Fights break out, riots ensue, and ultimately many depart from their shared goal of completing the tower. The unfinished state of the tower serves as a powerful symbol for this failed endeavor. It represents how even with grand ideas and collective effort, misunderstandings can lead to disarray and unfulfilled dreams. Jan Luyken and Willem Goeree masterfully bring this chaotic moment to life through their artistic collaboration in 1690. Their attention to detail allows us to witness firsthand the struggles faced by those attempting such an audacious feat. This thought-provoking piece reminds us of our inherent need for effective communication and understanding amongst ourselves if we are ever going to achieve great things together.
