What reading level is Old Spanish Masters Engraved By Timothy Cole book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He very early received some instruc- tion from an unknown painter, possibly a pupil of Luis Morales, whose birthplace, Frexenal, is in the neighborhood; and made such progress that his father abandoned the idea of bringing him up to his own occupation of a husbandman and sent him to the school of Roelas in Seville. Here by his talents and industry he speedily gained considerable reputation.
Like Velasquez, he was resolved that everything that he painted should be from direct study of the model ...; and the effects of this dili- gent and faithful observation were soon apparent in the remarkably realistic character of his works. In his earlier, and, as many think, his most interesting, ones, the realism is pushed to a singular ex- treme. It is as if he were persuaded that the painter had no concern with anything but what is visible to the eye! and must, therefore, permit himself no exercise of fancy, much less of imagination. Even his angels are but boys and girls, picked, it would seem, at hazard off the streets, pleasant looking, plain or ngly, as it happened, and set upon the model's stand in freshly laundered linen.
