What reading level is The Art of the Low Countries Studies By Wilhelm R Valentiner book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So it squares with the schedule if Rembrandt graduated from the Latin school at fourteen. If, as seems evident, his parents meant to bring him up to be a scholar he must have shown in early youth distinct intellectual ability, whether or no the father yet recognized the direction in which it pointed; and certainly it was not to Rem- brandt's detriment that at first he was led along plainly prescribed paths.
Artists of genius who instinctively develop into ex- ponents of a phase of civilization ...need a certain amount of knowledge as a basis upon which, in manifold ways, their powerful imaginations may build. This does not mean that they must be, like Rubens or Velasquez, aristocrats with the means of culture always close at hand. They may be, by birth and breeding, simple folk like Durer or Michelangelo, provided that the new intellectual life of their time is brought conspic- uously to their notice, even if only, perhaps, by a small circle of its representatives. Then, dowered with broad powers of comprehension, they will assimilate the proffered material and will embody its essentials in that conception of life which, without formulating it in words, they express in their art.
