What reading level is Rossetti book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her portrait can be seen in a picture by Holman Hunt and in Millais' Ophelia. Miss Siddal sat for most of the women in Rossetti's earliest and finest water-colours.
To 1851 belongs the beautiful little com- position called " Borgia, " in which Lucrezia can be seen dressed in an ample white gown brightened all over with coloured ribbons 32 ROSSETTI and bows, sitting with a lute in her hands. In the foreground two children are dancing. Leaning over her left shoulder is the Pope Alexander VI. , wh...ile her brother Caesar stands on the other side beating time with a knife against a wine-glass on the table.
Rossetti was not long in discovering that Miss Siddal had a strong aptitude for art. With his special gift of influencing others the position of model was soon merged into that of a pupil. Under his guidance Miss Siddal made rapid progress and her water-colours show a fine sense of colour.
The sympathy between artist and pupil ripened into affection. The exact date of their engagement is not known, but it was probably in 1853, certainly not later than 1854, and was at first kept secret at Miss Siddal's request.
