What reading level is European Enamels book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of the sculpture of the gold that lies beneath the layer of enamel it is impossible to speak too highly. It is marvellous. The colours of the enamel are beau- tiful. There are red, yellow, blue, browns, an iron grey, and all so transparent as to give beautiful shades to the design, due to the varying depth of the glass lying over it.
The dresses are those of the time. The subject and treatment, while they exhibit the influence of the early Renaissance, are still strongly Gothic. This transition... period, when the naturalism of the Re- naissance came in to rejuvenate the somewhat ascetic rigour of the Gothic, is a very fascinating period. Italian art had passed through a somewhat similar stage nearly a century previously. It was soon to be extinguished by pedantic Renaissance, but as long as it lasted it produced some of the most delicate Christian work that has ever been executed.
In the Louvre also there is a reliquary in several stages which once ornamented the Chapel of the IOI EUROPEAN ENAMELS Order of the Saint Esprit.
