What reading level is A History of Architecture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Rather are we reminded of Cairene or other Moresco-Spanish and Moorish pan- elKng. To show the breadth of the artist's sources he has run panels of reticulated tra- cery across the lavatory, which appears in the central corner of our illustration and in Fig. 297, with a design based on interlaced branches with leaves and buds in a close schematic pattern.
For the rest of Manoelino work, especially for that at Thomar, the reader is referred to the chapter on Portuguese Renaissance, though the di...fference in style is so slight as to show how impossible it is to be too strict in deciding whether to assign Manoelino work to a Gothic or a Renaissance chapter. Architects and artists should study and appropriate its motifs with far greater avidity than they have thus far shown.
297 — Lavatory of Claustro Real, Batalha. (From Watson.) CHAPTER III GOTHIC IN ITALY IT is a well-recognized fact that of all European countries, Italy showed herself the least susceptible to Gothic art and never thor- oughh' understood or liked it.
