What reading level is The Eastern Shores of the Adriatic in 1863. With a Visit to Montenegro book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A black marble sphinx, of the time of Amunoph III., was probably brought over at the same time as these columns. Its calm dignified repose contrasts curiously with the two lively, snapping, snarling Lions of St. Mark, which lie close to their ancient and venerable cousin.
The arcade of the great court is composed of circular- headed arches, resting on very beautiful Corinthian capitals. Its peculiarity is, that in the Hosted by Google DALMATIA. 225 Portico at the end the columns are united by a... very bold and handsome cornice, stilted up in the centre into an arch. This is strange ; but, used as it is, it has a fine effect.
And now for the beautiful Cathedral. The ori- ginal building, which was single and isolated, seemed to me to be almost identically the same as the ex- quisite little Temple of Jupiter at Baalbek, though less richly ornamented. Like that, the cella was octagonal, and had an open peristyle all round it.
The proportions are beautiful, and the execution of the capitals, friezes, and under ornamentation of the roof is very good.
