What reading level is Great Minds in Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In Da Vinci's work he perceived a more masculine beauty, and in Masaccio a greater mastery of composition than he had found in Perugino. Under this new- influence he painted a Madonna, now in the Museum at Berlin ; and on a small panel the more celebrated Madonna del Granduca, in the Fitti Palace, Florence. No doubt the dignified and meditative beauty of Leonardo da Vinci prevails in the latter work. Its I40 MASTER MINDS IN ART.
statue-like simplicity is exquisite, while the spiritual abstracti...on of the Madonna, and the purity, as of a little child, of the young Christ, are more like the influences of life than of a picture. The Grand Duke Ferdinand III., who owned this eloquent little panel, carried it about with him, took it with him into exile, for to him, as to thousands of others since, it was as a talisman of blessing. Raphael had not finished with Perugia, however. He re- turned there in 1505 to paint an altar-piece for the monks of St. Antony — a work, indeed, which he began during his apprenticeship.
