What reading level is Italian Gardens book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While this wildness has given a certain charm of its own to the place, it makes it difficult, if not impossible, to trace much of the original design of the architect.
Many of the architectural features have been re- stored at unfortunate periods or by unskilful hands, 76 IN THE GARDENS, VILLA D ESTE and are now far from being in harmony with the sim- plicity of the earliest work of the villa. It is where the overgrowth has concealed this sort of thing that time has done so much in making the p...resent charm of the villa.
VILLAALDOBRANDINI: about the same distance from Rome as Tivoli, and with very much the same sit- uation and character of country (except that it is less abrupt), is Frascati, which contains a very remarkable collection of villas. Though none of them were so elaborately conceived or so per- fectly carried out as the Villa d'Este, and though in their present condition there is no individual villa of any striking importance, yet, taking the place as a whole, there is none where one finds so many villas so closely interwoven with one another, and where the Italian villa can be studied to greater advantage.
