What reading level is How to Judge a Picture Familiar Talks in the Gallery With the Uncritical Lovers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It consists of a head, two hands, and two feet, pro- Drawing and Form. 85 jecting from what is supposed to be a body, but which is nothing in reality but an antique gar- ment. In other words, there is no drawing under the clothing, no unity, no proportion, no life. It is well to keep a sharp lookout for the studio dummy, for he is a very prevalent person in com- mercial pictures, and the number of times that we accept him as a bona fide type of the genus homo is simply astounding.
Drawing in la...ndscapes is not supposed to be so vitally important as in figure-pictures — a state- ment which always stirs up the blood of the land- scapists — yet it is worthy of more consideration than is usually given it. Every thing in nature has its peculiar form, and though the trunk of a tree may grow in any one of a thousand shapes, and thus leave more latitude for the choice of the artist than the trunk of a man, yet, nevertheless, it requires good drawing to make it appear natural and graceful. This is true again of a bank, a cloud, a mountain, a river, or a brook-side.
