What reading level is The Van Eycks And Their Followers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


He came to Louvain probably about 1440, when he was already middle-aged. His pictures contain a strong element which is peculiar to them and to the pictures of his followers, but is not Flemish or Brabantine. That he gained much from contact with Roger is obvious, but he did not derive the stem of his art from him. The Roger element was a graft. We can find analogies between the style of Bouts and that of Ouwater, Geertgen, and other Dutch painters, but what they possess in common was not deriv
...ed from Roger. The great Dutch originator was Bouts.
It is true that John vanEyck was employed by John of Bavaria, Count of Holland, to decorate his palace at The Hague, and that he worked there for about two years from October, 1422 ; thus it is tempting to think that Bouts may have worked there under him, or that Van Eyck may have laid the foundations of a Dutch school of painting in which Bouts grew up, but we have no evidence that such was the case. Dr. Vogelsang' has brought together examples of miniature paintings made in Holland at this period, but none of them show the least influence of the Van Eyck school nor any likeness to the personal style of Bouts.
