What reading level is Raeburn book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Bythat time, or little later, he had almost certainly come to anarrangement under which his master cancelled his indenture, andreceived as compensation a share in the prices received for theminiatures to which Raeburn now chiefly devoted himself, and for whichGilliland probably helped to secure commissions. These miniatures, ofwhich few have survived, recognisable as his work at least, possess novery marked artistic qualities. Drawn with care and not withoutconsiderable sense of construction, t...hey are tenderly modelled butnot stippled, and the colour is cool and rather negative in character. The frank way in which the sitters are regarded, and the lighting andplacing of the heads are almost the only elements which hint theirauthorship. They are simple and straight-forward likenesses ratherthan works of art and bear no obvious relationship to the elegantbibelots or deeply-searched portraits in little of the contemporaryEnglish school of miniaturists. But obviously they were somepreparation for the development which followed, when, soon afterwardsand almost at once, he passed from water-colour miniature to life-sizeportraiture in oil paint.
