example Example for column rank $\neq$ row rank

The proof that column rank = row rank for matrices over a field relies on the fact that the elements of a field commutatecommute. I'm looking for an easy example of a matrix over a ring for which column rank $\neq$ row rank. Ei.ge. can one find a $2 \times 3$-(block)matrix with real $2\times 2$-matrices as elements, which has different column and row ranks?
