A contemporaneous Croatian artist Giorgio Glovocic mentioned a third version of this work painted on ivory but now lost. In an essay on this painting art historian Steven Mansbach argued that the most prominent figure represents Philip II, coinciding with the interpretation of it as a depiction of suffering caused by Spain. It portrays a rolling green landscape in the back, a city scene on the left, and a harbor scene on the right, where slabs of red stone are being delivered.  On the bottom left are many slabs of grey stone amidst which several stonemasons kneel before the procession of King Nimrod. Their work in progress was painted to parallel the Coliseum and takes on a spiral shape and is the title structure. For 10 points, name this painting by Bruegel depicting a biblical structure that man tried to build to reach as high as heaven.
