What reading level is An Essay On Landscape Gardening book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Auy one will be ready to believe this, who has gone through the walk of essen hossen. In the lower part of the walk, there have been great stones thrown of design into the brook; in the upper part there have been none : the consequence of this difference is, that the under part is infinitely more animated and agreeable than the upper part.
The two best landscape painters in the world, NICOLAS PoussiN and salvator ROSA, both delighted in painting the great scenes of nature, but they took differe...nt routes, salvator rosa chose terrible and noble natural situations ; but his firs were scathed with thunder, or blown over by storms ; his grass was arid ; his streams not rushing down hills, but stagnant in pools; no view of houses, nor scarce any of life, was to be seen : a raven perched on the trunk of a tree, a magician under the shade of a mountain, the murder of a traveller amidst rocks by robbers, were the only signs of life in his landscapes. L*oussiN, on the other hand, added all the beauty of verdure, all the vivaciiy of water, to his great situ- ations ; and interspersed amongst them not only living objects, but at the bottoms and on the sides of the hills, views of temples and palaces of a Babylonish architecture, which by their uncouth appearance cor- responded to tlie sentiment he means to create.
