What reading level is Rubens book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Beneath an arbour the Virgin sufforts the Infant Christ who is seated in her lap. In the foreground St. Bonaventura kneels in adoration, behind her is seen St. Jerome with an open Bible. On the other side St. George and three Holy Women are 156 approaching.whilst four angels hover in the air with crowns and palms.
The whole is a v/ork, which for the special charm of its colouring may be ranked among the finest of the mas- ter's productions. Tra- dition tells us that Rubens here portrayed his ow...n family: — his father as St. Jerome, himself as St. George and his two wives and the Fraulein Lun- den as the three Holy Women. It is not impos- sible that there may be a certain resemblance to these individuals which however may also be detected again ' and again in many other pictures of the master.
But tradition is certainly wrong in asserting that in this picture — the date ot which cannot definitely be ascertained, — Rubens intended to especially portray himself and his family.
The epitaph written by his friend Gevserts was only engraved on a tablet over the tomb during the last century.
