What reading level is Pictures in the Tate Gallery book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One portrait has been bequeathed to the Gallery, a like- ness of Watts, painted by himself. It is a work of fine reticence and power, which reveals his strength in depicting character. The beauty and simplicity of a great personality are perfectly, and yet unconsciously, realised. In portraiture the genius of Watts is perhaps most clearly manifested. And if we wish to comprehend his power as an artist, we must go to Holland House, where many of his early studies are collected, and still more to... the National Gallery of portraits to see his second gift to the nation.
It is not possible here to notice these works in detail. Their power is universally realised. Each portrait is an interpretation of character as well as a master achievement of art. The work is imaginative rather than realistic. In his portraits Watts always exalted the ideal. He still spoke his message to mankind. And for this reason, his presentments of men and women are more than perfect likenesses — they are revelations of individual minds.
