What reading level is Fra Filippo Lippi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Infinitely more effective, too, because possessing more unity, is Donatello's composition, the great sculptor having focussed his attention on the most salient point of the story, namely the presentation of the Baptist's head, relegating the episodes of minor importance to the background. Even at so advanced a period of his career Fra Filippo had not yet mastered the secret of a compact and simple method of composing.
But if the composition is defective, numerous merits concur in rendering this... painting one of the most perfect ever executed by the friar. Tactile values are admirably rendered, the perspective is correct, the faces full of character and of varied ex- pression, while the treatment of the draperies, which fall in ample and unconventional folds and masses, deserves the highest praise. A touch of wholesome 136 FRA FILIPPO LIPPI realism, which we do not find in the preceding com- partments, adds force and geniality to the work.
Of the numer,ous figures which give life to the com- position, that representing the dancing daughter of Herodias is the most important from an historical, as well as from an artistic, point of view.
