What reading level is Fra Angelico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But on her face there is noexpression of ecstatic joy, modest, indeed "humble in the midst ofglory", she droops her eyes, almost as if she dared not rest them onthe Saviour. Angels and saints, symmetrically disposed at the sides, fill the whole background of the picture, with heads either raised inadmiration or bowed in respect, but in attitudes so similar, that theygive a sense of monotony. Then come the saints, some kneeling at thefoot of the throne, and others in the side wings of the tripty...ch, reverently bowing to the Mother of God.
Fra Angelico repeats the principal motive, but develops it accordingto his high ideal, his intense faith, and mystic sentiment. He givesto the Virgin an expression of infinite sweetness; to the angels atruly celestial charm, to the saints a serene expression ofbeatitude, and to the whole scene the azure divine character of avision of Paradise.
High in the centre the Redeemer extends his right hand to add abrilliant gem to the crown of the Virgin, who sits near him, withhands crossed in loving reverence.
