What reading level is The Arts in Early England volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fig. 108 shows one of several fragments Fig. 108. — Carved stone, with balusters, from the site of Wilfrid's Church at Hexham.
ROMAN AND SAXON BALUSTERS 193 found on the site of the nave of Wilfrid's church at Hexham, and there is some reason to believe that these formed part of its enrichment. Here distinct balusters occur as ornamental motives, while there are other stones in the same collection with Saxon carving on them, which show forms of the beading above noticed. On a well-known stone i...n the porch of Jarrow church (Fig. 109) there is a row of little balusters, about 3^ in. High, set upright, but curiously similar in shape, if we look at them in one way, to the elements of the horizontal beading on the Birrens altar.
The Roman carver would probably not have repre- sented these baluster shafts as used constructively unless such features had been employed in real life, though nothing exactly like them mav have been found on Roman sites. In Saxon work they are not only represented in ornament but actually occur used construc- tively in buildings.
