What reading level is Brick And Marble in the Middle Ages Notes of Tours in the North of Italy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cecilia and S. John are very fine, but S. Paul is a sort of burly ruffian. The heavenly choir is very mundane, and the whole work somewhat academical in its design and treatment.
The earlier pictures here are very disappointing. The early Bolognese painters seem to have painted coarsely and heavily, and to have drawn badly, and there is no com- parison for a moment between their work and that of the early Sienese and Florentine painters on the one hand, and those of Padua and Verona on the othe...r. One has indeed in their works a sort of foretaste of what one has from their followers — the Caracci, Domenichino, Bagna-Cavallo, and to some extent Guide. Dismal colour, great striving after chiaroscuro, violent and distorted attitudes, and a purely conventional and academical style, are not great recom> mendations of any school, but they are things which must be accepted if one is to enjoy these works at all heartily.
A very short railway journey takes one from Bologna to Modena. The one object of interest here is the cathedral, but this is a building of extreme historical and architectural value, and has fortunately been left with so few alterations that we can make out its history with fair certainty.
