What reading level is The Arts And the Artistic Manufactures of Denmark book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These Danish works in Terra Cotta, or " Danish Terra Cottas, " may be generally classified as follows: — i. Vases and Tazzi ; 2. Statuettes after Thorvaldsen, Bissen, and some other Sculptors ; 3. Small grotesque and humorous figures of the " Nisser, " the dwarf-elves of Norse mythology ; 4. Small figures of Danish peasantry, animals, &c. ; and 5. Decorative and useful objects in endless variety.
Since the beautiful Terra Cotta Vkses and Tazzi of Denmark are either actual reproductions of famou...s Italo-Greek and Etruscan prototypes, or in many important particulars follow the guidance of ancient classic models, it appears desirable here to preface any description of modern Danish Terra Cottas with some brief notice of the Italian potters who flourished in an early antiquity, and whom the most scientific and accomplished of their living successors reverently accept as their honoured instructors, guides, and authorities.
The painted vases of a remote era that have been discovered in the sepulchral chambers of central Italy, by an implied tacit consent were so long and so generally assigned to the ancient Etruscans that, without any definite ideas as to who those ancient Etruscans may have been, the distinctive term " Etruscan " was habitually given, as their proper title, to all ancient vases or similar works in Terra Cotta that might be brought to light in Umbria or the adjoining regions of the Italian peninsula.
