What reading level is The Artist the Merchant And the Statesman of the Age of the Medici And of Our book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Those who have any regard for their reputation seldom go to a studio alone ; but are attended by a mother or sister, or female friend, and during the time they are required, their attendants are occupied IN FLORENCE. 105 in sewing, knitting, or platting straw. They are generally paid by the hour, and according to their excellence. Some receive twenty cents an hour, others will not stand as models for less than half a dollar, no matter what the time may be : but many are satisfied with a paul (t...en cents) . In Rome they are better paid, for they are in greater demand, from the great number of artists.
They do not scruple to throw off all their clothes, for they regard an artist as they do a looking-glass ; but few of them w r ill permit a stranger who is not an artist to be present, and I have known some of them to express as much alarm at the approach of persons to the door, as would be expected from a lady surprised in her dressing-room. During the sittings they converse freely on anything that hap- pens to excite attention ; other artists they have stood for, and the opinions they brought away of them and their works ; and some of them seem to take as warm an interest in the progress of a statue as the artist himself.
