What reading level is The Cities of Spain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


In the Sala Capitular, Juan of Borgona has painted, iu fresco, the Last Judgment, with the Descent from the Cross, a Pieta and Resurrection, and other subjects, very much in the manner of Ghirlandajo, especially in the Meeting of the Virgin and S. Elizabeth, where the round faces, the gestures, and the folds of the dress seem to suggest a pupil of the Italian master. In the sacristy is an admirable painting, the Casting of Lots for Christ's Raiment, by El Greco, whose work is not rare in this c
...ity. I speak of El Greco elsewhere in this book, but 1 At Burgos : the Birth, the Assumption, and the Coronation of the B. V. M. At Leon : Scenes from the Life of Christ, and the Virgin, the Last Judg- ment, and the Coronation of the B. V. M.
190 THE CITIES OF SPAIN here, at any rate, we may see him as still a pupil of Titian, without his later mannerisms that, save in his portraits, might seem to spoil his work for us.
It is not difficult to leave the cathedral of Toledo, for here in Spain I think we learn to ignore monuments, to be a little unregardful of churches, to care more for the soft sky and the lines of the hills, the wideness of the plains.
