What reading level is Architectural Notes On German Churches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cologne cathedral is the unrivalled glory of buildings of this class; the most splendid, and perhaps the earliest exhibition of the beauties of 113 this style. The abbey of Altenberg, at a little distance from Cologne, now a manufactory, had a church of the same admirable style, which still exists. This is said to have been built by the same person who was the architect of Co- logne ; and as it was finished, we are enabled, from the exquisite lightness and grace of its lofty interior, to form s...ome conception of the splendid and majestic vision which would have been embodied by the completion of the ori- ginal plan of Cologne. The church of Altenberg is particularly worthy of notice for the beautiful and varied forms of its window tracery, which in the interior view are seen to singular advan- tage, the glass being ornamented in white and grey patterns, which subdue without colouring the light*. The church of St Catharine at Oppen- heim, near Worms, also in part a ruin, is an- other fine example of this style, and has been worthily illustrated in the magnificent work of Mr Miiller.
