What reading level is Principles of Home Decoration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is a very flagrant far-away imitation of tapestry which is so farfrom being good that it is a wonder it has had even a moderate success, imitation which does not even attempt the decorative effect of thegenuine, but substitutes upon an admirably woven cotton or woollencanvas, figure panels, copied from modern French masters, and suggestiveof nothing but bad art. Yet these panels are sometimes used (and in factare produced for the purpose of being used) precisely as a genuinetapestry would... be, although the very fact of pretence in them, brings afeeling of untruth, quite at variance with the principles of all goodart. The objection to pictures transferred to tapestries holds good, even when the tapestries are genuine.
The great cartoons of Raphael, still to be seen in the KensingtonMuseum, which were drawn and coloured for Flemish weavers to copy, showa perfect adaptation to the medium of weaving, while the paintings inthe Vatican by the same great master are entirely inappropriate totextile reproduction.
