What reading level is The National Gallery book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sir Charles Eastlake's policy of concentrating on the fifteenth and sixteenth century Italians had involved a certain neglect of the great Dutch- men. The authorities moreover had felt no special need for efforts in this direction, as it was generally believed that a number of the mastei*- pieces of Dutch art in the hands of private owners would ultimately find their way into the National Collection by donation and bequest — an optimistic anticipation which has not yet been realised.
The Peel C...ollection included but a single Rembrandt, but as it happened Rembrandt was 59 THE NATIONAL GALLERY the one Dutch painter who was already fairly well represented in the Gallery. Perhaps none of the seventeen of his works seen here shows the master in what has been called his Shake- spearean mood ; but the two small pictures which formed part of the original Angerstein Collection, The Woman taken in Adultery (45) and The Adoration of the Shepherds (47), combine a marvel- lous technical dexterity with great imaginative power.
