What reading level is American Masters of Painting Being Brief Appreciations of Some American Painter book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What emptiness and desolation of world without and spirit within ! A breath of the cease- less mystery of sorrow throbbing out of the void of time ! Then a tenderer feeling pervades "The Sculptor and the King. " Stroke by stroke the sculptor has compelled the marble to respond to his thought, or wooed it, for he has a gentle, dreamy face ; a youth only dimly conscious of his desires, and he waits for the king's verdict, tremu- lously eager, and withal so glad in his heart at what his hands have... found the skill to do ; a poetic embodiment not only of the primitive man's yearning after expression, but of the spring- time of every artist's soul. Then note the king, standing with folded arms, wrapping his doubt of the desirability of such things and, yet, his wonder and admiration of them in the convenient impene- trability of silence. There is a touch of humour in this figure, as of the critic non-plussed and unwilling to commit himself, but much more of serious reference to the early dawnings of a com- prehension of the beautiful, as "a thing to be desired to make one wise.
