What reading level is Furnishing the Home of Good Taste; a Brief Sketch of the Period Styles in Interior Decoration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Biesener, Roentgen, Gk)uthi6re, Fragonard and Boucher are some of the names that stand out most distinctly as authors of the beautiful decorations of the time. Marie Antoinette's boudoir at Fontainebleau is a perfect example of the style and many of the other rooms both there and at the Petit Trianon show its great beauty, gayety and dignity combined with its richness and magnificence.
The influence of Pompeii must not be overlooked in study- ing the style of Louis XVI, for it appeared in much
...of the decoration of the time. The beautiful little boudoir of the Marquise de Serilly is a charming example of its adaptation.
The problem of bad proportion is also most interestingly over- come. The room was too high for its size, so it was divided into four arched openings separated by carved pilasters, and the walls covered with paintings. The ceiling was darker than the walls, which made it seem lower, and the whole color scheme was so arranged that the feeling of extreme height was lessened.
