What reading level is Dress As It Has Been is And Will Be book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is the old story, of the eye seeing what it. Brings with it the power to see. " Mr. Turner, " said a lady to the great painter, " I don't see the effects in nature that you put into your pictures. " " Don't you wish you could ?" replied Turner.
The conclusion forced upon us by the study of the treatment of dress in art is that the artist should represent only what is true to the time and the subject. He should keep to the facts of costume as much as to the facts of anatomy and of physiognomy..., and no more ; and then, with conscientious study of his task, and the due admixture of brains with his materials, he must produce work that will deserve and achieve renown. It is easy to say, as men often do say, that the age is unpoetical, and that the costume of to-day does not lend itself to heroic treat- ment. This is the excuse of mere mediocrity, Dress, as we see it in the Arts, 159 unequal to a struggle with the actual, because it has no insight into the ideal. The heroic and the poetical are permanent elements in every society, and a great character will dignify every and any costume, if only this be the work of an artist.
