What reading level is Progress of Art in the Century book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The same may be said of another notable artist, Mr. Strudwick, a disciple of both Bume-Jones and Spencer Stanhope. The epithet exquisite best describes Mr. Strudwick's work at its best, as in his fine picture " The Ten Virgins " or *' The Eamparts of God's House " : but he has never the spontaneity of his master Bume-Jones, or rather, his pictures generally lack the imaginative reality whidi gives those of the greater painter so wonder- ful a charm for all their "remoteness.'* It is note- worth...y that few of this school paint nature beauti- fully for itself: at most they paint lovely "acces- sories." Kot one of them has painted sea-water as Bume-Jones painted it in " The Mermaid " : not one of them has achieved a landscape such as that master's "Pan and Psyche" — ^though, indeed, it might be asked what modem master has.
There has ever been a natural instinct with all the painters of the Pre-Baphaelite group to turn to dec- orative work. None of them, however, has done what two of the impressionistic Glasgow School have done, George Henry and Edward Homel.
