What reading level is Watteau And His School book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" With respect to his fully-clothed figures, Watteau's method seems to have been, — first, to outline his drawing in black rather faintly, — next, to fill in his figures with broad lines of vermilion, — over this to draw perpendicular or curving thin parallel black lines, — and lastly, to touch up with white, the part he desired strongly lighted. This " lining " is where the mystery, and the charming radia- tions of the illumination are to be discovered. What this mannerism did for his Characte...r-figures is delightfully shown in his raye costumes of Gilles and Mezzetin, — guitarists and dancers. In his Chinese period, and in his Oriental figures, this is also quite a marked characteristic.
A remarkable habit may be noted by anybody who takes the trouble to examine the Master's drawings care- fully, — it is that he drew upon both sides of his paper !
Sometimes, indeed, he seems to have traced the under- side almost line for line from the upper ; and often the drawing at the back is the bolder of the two, and almost projects its force through the paper.
