What reading level is Aims And Ideals in Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But it may be said, surely the effect is forced in Watteau ; one does not, in daylight or sun- light, see these strong darks ? Yes, this is true, but it is impossible to get strong colour to tell, as a light, unless it is contrasted with, or sup- ported by, dark colour, as the Venetians did ; and if by darkening the shadows, the painter can get the effect of the sparkling lights, he is justified in sacrificing the truth of the general colour for the sake of giving, by a particular relation of t...he parts to the whole, a concentra- tion on certain things. For by this concentra- tion our mind is directed to the principal things, as it would be by our own interest in them, if we were looking at the scene. Watteau does what he wants to do. He makes us share his Lectures on Painting interest or enjoyment in certain things. Yet if we were painting figures under trees in sun- light, we ought not deliberately to imitate this convention ; we ought, I feel sure, always to approach nature frankly : but if we wanted to concentrate on a particular passage as Watteau did, we should have to do so by a similar means.
