What reading level is A History of Architecture in Italy From the Time of Constantine to the Dawn of the Renaissance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
442. Gubbio. Palazzo dei Consoli.
Marino Faliero. Under these architects, it appears, the arcades of the two principal facades were built. Whether these arcades were originally intended to support the upper wall whicli they now carry, or whether, as has been contended, that wall was brought forward at a later period in order to enlarge the great hall in the upper story, is uncertain. Let us hope, for the credit of their architects, that the latter guess is the correct one. For the extreme picto...rial beauty of the building can scarcely atone for the reckless construction, which defies reason and common sense, and which resulted naturally in dangerous settlements, both vertical and lateral, requiring tie-rods, both longitudinal and transverse, throughout the entire length of the facades, the walling up of arches in the lower arcade, and finally, within the last twenty years, the practical rebuilding of large por- tions of the arcades in two stories.
The building is too familiar to require a description.
