What reading level is Original Bust of Genl U S Grant book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On his lap lies a map of Europe. The head is bowed in contemplation of it. The last days at Helena have come, and as Napoleon regards the scene of his am- bition and glory, all the vanity of a frustrated life comes over him, and the face reflects the pathos of vast designs brought to naught. The face and figure make the strongest appeal to human sym- pathy. In something the same way, in this bust, the artist has appealed to a universal sympathy, and produced a work which has in it the touch of ...genius and deep feeling which all men respond to. While it is strong and noble and characteristic of the man, it is profoundly pathetic. We doubt if any artist could have pro- duced it who was not moved by the universal feeling of sympathy and love which flowed out toward Grant when it was taken, which has enabled him to give to it that final great quality with- out which any picture or statue is cold and without real power. In landscape, the picture must have beauty and poetry that are not in mere form or color, and in sculpture the portrait must have, beyond the likeness, a deep touch of human nature, of genuine feeling.
