What reading level is Correggio book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The arms of the warrior-saint are home by four little putti, one of .whom is trying on the helmet. This picture has been said to represent the family of the painter, but this is quite disproved by the children here being all boys. The last of the treasures of Correggio's work in Dresden is a small picture not more than a foot square in size, but as well known to us as the Notte or Oiomo : it is the celebrated Heading Magdalen. The history of this picture is not known. It is probably the same wo...rk as, one stated to have been in the possession of Count 1^100016 de Gaddi at Florence in 1600. It must, in this case, have been acquired by the Dukes of Modena soon afferwards, as it had apparently been long in their possession before it passed into Saxony. This exquisite little picture is painted on copper, on which, it is said, Allegri laid a wash of gold to enhance the bril- liancy of the colouring. The Magdalen, wrapped in blue drapery which contrasts admirably with the delicate flesh- tints of her arms, neck, and feet, is lying on the grass, her right arm supporting her head to enable her to read in a book spread before, her on the grass, while the golden hair which Allegri excelled in painting falls around her in rich tresses.
