What reading level is Japanese Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The large bronze Bud- dha, brought from M^guro by Mr. Cernuschi, dates, it is said, froni the close of the 18fch century.
It reproduces the principal characteristics of the work of Shiumun's time. The tone is the same ; it possesses an immutable calm, a supreme elegance; the head is endowed with a tender sweetness which is lacking in the Dai-butz of Nara and in that of Kamakura. It measures 14 feet from the base of the flower to the summit of the disk, which would give to the figure, if upright
..., a height of about 30 feet. It is certainly the largest piece of bronze sculpture contained in a private collection.
Mr. Cernuschi has placed it with excellent taste on a pedestal of open woodwork. The effect in the center of the hall is grand. The abundant light surrounding it reveals all its beauty. The temple which sheltered this Dai-butz at M6guro, a suburb of Tokio, having been destroyed, the statue was abandoned and almost forgotten in the midst of the gardens. An account of this wonderful acquisition 126 JAPANESE ABT.
