What reading level is French Pottery And Porcelain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The manufacture of biscuit-porce- lain statuettes in soft paste was almost entirely given up after 1777; and this is to be deplored, as if the soft paste has draw- backs for objects of utility it is none the less greatly superior to hard paste from the deco- rative point of view.
Finally, Sevres has executed a certain number of pictures ; and I hasten to say that it is here I see most weakness. Why ? Because every material ought to be treated with regard to its own individual character ; and wh...en marqueterie, ceramic, and needle- work aim at the same end as painting they ignore this incontestable truth, which is one of the essential principles of all the arts. Certainly I admit that marqueterie and ceramic — as I have cited those two examples — move 114 SEVRES in parallel lines with painting, and represent similar visions ; for such visions may under- go the necessary modifications for each particular technique. But that they should imitate painting in a textual manner is an absolute and irredeemable error ; for either the painting is bad and the ceramic good, or vice versd.
