To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the composition and through- out the grouping, nevertheless, the spirit of liapliael is visible. Now come the celebrated "Stanzi" of Raphael, which are considered by painters and connoisseurs in art as the most costly and beautiful, not only in Rome, but in the whole world. One of these apartments he finished entirely himself; in the others only some of the figures are of his execution; the rest were painted by his pupils and friends after his drawings and under his eye. The paintings are in... much better preservation than those in the Sixtine chapel and, with the care which is now taken of them, they may for centuries to come attract the ad- miration of connoisseurs. It is nevertheless a sad reflection that some of the most precious things produced by the genius and pencil of Raphael are here adherent to the walls, and must perish with them. It is therefore fortunate that these pain- tings have been and are so frequently copied and engraved, that something of them will yet remain when the originals shall be no more.
