What reading level is The Ivory Workers of the Middle Ages book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Leaving aside the large number of Syro- By- zantine and other Eastern ivories, we must pass on to Italy, where the remains of the old Latin art still lingered, though terribly debased and mingled with that of the barbarian Lunsfobards.
By the seventh century sculpture was reduced to 96 LOMBARD IVORY CARVINGS a deplorable state, and as Cattaneo says,' it is most unlikely that the Ravenna carved sarcophagi were really made at this period ; they more prob- ably belonged to ancient burials, with th...e new name carved on the lid.
Even in ivory carving, which is always behind the age, we find an almost ludicrous barbarity.
An ivory tablet of the eighth century in the Bologna Museum is a fair example of this mixed style; it has three tiers of scenes from the Nativity, and shows strong B3'zantine influence, yet there is something in the treatment of the drapery, barbaric as it is, which seems to lead on to the later Italian style of the eleventh century, which definitely connects with the earliest Gothic art in France.'' An example of this may be seen in a plaque in the Bargello, representing Christ in glory surrounded by angels.
