What reading level is The Masterpieces of European Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here was a man who lived in the presence of prophets, patriarchs and saints, and who seemed to have entered the spirit- world to bring down to earth those forms of purity and beauty which his canvas revealed. We were in company with a young sculptor in whom Overbeck took a fatherly interest. "What, " said the venerable man, "are you now studying?" "I have received, " said the sculptor in reply, "a commission to execute in marble a ballet-girl, slightly draped. " A cloud shadowed the face of the... Christian purist as he saw one more artist a wanderer from the fold, allured and lost. Designs similar in character to those to which we have referred, sometimes slight and sketchy in outline, and sometimes shaded into roundness and hatched with detail — the illustration on page 105, "The Entombment of Christ, " is a favorite and well-known example — have occupied a large portion of Overbeck's labors. This is a style of work, indeed, for which, both physically and mentally, he is obviously expressly fitted.
