What reading level is The Art of the Vienna Galleries book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His last period coincides with his residence in England, when his portraiture, to which he had already devoted considerable time, engrossed him almost completely, and gave him his greatest fame. The magnificent "Holy Family" (No. 1047) belongs to the early Rubens period; as does the no Ubc Hrt ot tbe Dtenna Galleries " Crucifixion " (No. 1033), which has noble pathos. Less dramatic than his master's are van Dyck's passion scenes. The '' Pieta " (No. 1051) has a gentler spirit, deeper feeling of... sorrow, more spir- ituality, if less force, than the work of Rubens. This lack of exuberant strength is also manifest in the only mythological presentation we have here by van Dyck, his " Venus in Vulcan's Smithy " (No. 1035), where the goddess receives armour and weapons for Aeneas. No. 1043 is a para- phrase of one of Rubens' own compositions, and shows the struggle between Samson and the Philis- tines, after Delilah has taken his strength from him. Most of van Dyck's Madonnas belong to his second period.
