What reading level is Porcelain, a Sketch of Its Nature, Art And Manufacture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
167 leaves, which was originated at Meissen — it is said for the purpose of hiding defects in the ware — was too good a process not to be followed everywhere ; and in the same way some of the Sevres decorations, such as the rose-and- ribbon patterns, and the borders of blue cornflower said to have been invented for Marie-Antoinette, have been the startirig point of more modern designs than one could count.
When Meissen, Chantilly, and Sevres sent out their stream of deftly-modelled and gaily-pa...inted porcelain figures, they started a fashion that lasted for more than a century.
To speak of Dresden porcelain-figures is, indeed, to char- acterise the period from 1840 to 1880. Between those years, from almost every factory in Europe, there issued a crowd, " thick as leaves in Vallombrosa, " of figures, illustrating not only the social life of the times, but the characters of the stage, and the conventional " pastoral comedy " as it was played at Versailles and the other European Courts.
