What reading level is The Landscapes of George Frederick Watts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet perhaps in both cases so sudden a change would have no better effect than to turn their produce sour. Possibly if the less good amongst these landscapes seem to me a little stale and second-hand, allowance must be made for the fact THE LANDSCAPES OF GEORGE FREDERICK WATTS that I write these few lines from the lofty ramparts of an old walled town, with the wind rustling through ancient elms and a broad expanse of billowy country before me.
To be judged perhaps a little apart from the rest of... the landscapes, 11 The Parasite " is more definitely an attempt at pictorial allegory ; and not one of his more ambitious efforts at pointing an obvious moral by means of paint, is more entirely successful than this presentment of the ivy- festooned trunk in so graceful contrast with uncouth limbs of the bare tree in the background, a tree which the painter, after the fashion of moralists, has chosen from among the ugliest of its kind a corpus vile to prove his point. Yet it is pleasant to find a moralist who has some- times been suspected of a too "copy-book" correctitude lending for once his support to a more genial morality, recognising for once in a way that indeed we may well condone for their beauty many things at bottom indefensible, and this attitude, more becoming an artist than an inhuman if highly moral correctness, almost disarms criticism of his weaker pictures.
