To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One day, when he was thus employed, while sheltering from the rain he came on " one of those country painters who work at a small price who was painting the taber- nacle of a peasant, a matter naturally of no great mo- ment. " Andrea was much interested and at once began to scratch and draw on walls and stones with charcoal and knife. His drawings showed the greatest talent, and these things came to the ears of a Florentine gentleman, Bernardetto de Medici, whose estates lay near by the farm. A...nd when he saw the drawings he arranged that Andrea should become an apprentice to one of the painters then working in Florence. This little legend, whether it be true or not (and it is perilously like the story told of Giotto's boyhood), is interesting because it again makes clear to us the way in which art entered info the life of the people. 46 THE NATIONAL GALLERY Here we find a painter " of small price " who worked for peasants. There was no class labelled " artistic " in those days, and art did not exist solely for the rich and the educated, but everyone in their degree under- stood it, took an interest in and loved art ; in con- sequence everything the people made was beautiful.
