What reading level is Puvis De Chavannes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

At the very outset he sent in his resignation to escape being a party to a system of intolerance from which he had himself suffered so long.
His independence needed courage and in a very short time Puvis met with the consequences. After twelve years of suc- cess he had one of his pictures, "Les Jeunes Filles et la D 33 Mort " rejected by the very j ury from which he had resigned.
It is a strange piece of work in its rather literary concep- tion, one of those pictures which give us to think when
... the artist defends himself against the charge of being a thinker and a mystic.
" How little do these dreadful connoisseurs know me," he wrote in 1888, " who, forgetting the profound and faithful love I have shown for everything in Nature, try to confine me to a few deliberate incursions in the region of philosophy which I abhor! " 34 XVIII. LES JEUNES FILLES ET LA MORT.
(Girls and Death).
PLATE XIX. L'ESPERANCE (HOPE) IT is delightful to us that Puvis de Chavannes should have made it a sort of point of honour to be a man of will, balance and health, a man " who loves life and hates dreamers." When the light of day was gone, after he had worked furiously all day in the large studio at Neuilly, whither he walked early in the morning with soldierly regularity, when mercilessly he had exacted from himself and his assistants the maximum of work, it was splendid to see him taking his ease in careless talk and frank good humour at table, where his formidable appetite was the admiration of his guests and the terror of the mistress of the house.
