What reading level is The Art Teaching of John Ruskin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
) There is only one rule have one large thing and several smaller things, or one principal and several inferior, and bind them well together ; it must not be confounded with symmetry, and must be between three terms at least. Symmetry is shown in lateral arrangement in the plan, propor- tion in the elevation, and should vary in ascent from the base. Succession of equal things is not proportion, though repetition is sometimes effective (S. L. A. , chap, iv. ) And yet, however well man- aged, pro...portion has little influence ; it does not comfort, amuse, or inform the spectator ; whereas 234 Art-Teaching of Ruskin CHAP.
Architecture should use whatever power it has to please and instruct, or it is not a Fine Art (T. P. , 103-109).
This power lies in its ornamentation by forms (sculpture) and colour ; consequently, a building which is bare of ornament, however ingenious its proportions, is still only on the borderland of artistic creation. But at the same time it must be remem- bered that without proportion nothing further is possible.
