To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
TuRA : Virgin Annunciate National Gallery, London GUIDOCCIO COZZARELLI AND MATTEO DI GIOVANNI WHEN a new taste takes possession of us, the en- thusiasm and glamour it engenders towards everything within its field blind us to distinctions. At first it is the kind, the class, the type that attract. Only when the romance of novelty has vanished does the dif- ficult art of seeing come into play, training its adepts little by little to the less facile and overwhelming, but more virile and intellectu...al satisfaction derived from the exercise of the critical faculties.
During the last fifty years, taste has successively dis- covered or rediscovered many manifestations of art: — Assyrian, Japanese, Early Egyptian, Early Babylonian, Cretan, Chinese before Ming, Earlier Islamitic and medieval Persian, Indian and Khmer before 1600, not to speak of barbarous or barbarized arts like Scythian, Sassanian, those of the Runic North and those of Cen- tral America, of our own earlier Middle Ages, the savage arts of Africa and of the South Seas, or the Magdelenian marvels of Southern France and adjacent Spain.
