To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was a matter of great im- portance at that time, as only members of the Academy were allowed to exhibit their works at the salons, which are now open to all. Many tales were told of Madame Le Brun's extravagance ; but her own account of . an entertainment which she gave, and which was a subject of endless remark, shows how little she merited censure in that instance, at least. She relates that she had invited a number of friends for an evening, to listen to the reading of a poet. In the af...ternoon, while her brother read to her an account of an ancient Grecian dinner, which even gave the rules for cooking, Madame Le Brun determined upon improvising a Greek supper for her guests. She first instructed her cook as to the preparation of the food, and then she borrowed from a dealer, whom she knew, some cups, vases, and lamps, and arranged her studio with the effect which only an artist knows how to make. Among her guests were to be several very pretty ladies, and they were persuaded to wear costumes as much like those of the old Greeks as was possible in the short time for preparation.
