What reading level is The Enchanted Island the Venice of Titian And Other Studies in Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Head supplies the true interpretation. Apelles drew an outline perhaps some lovely profile. Protogenes, taking another colour to distinguish his work from that of Apelles drew a finer version of the subject over it as one might with pen and ink correct or improve a pencil sketch. Upon this, finally, Apelles superimposed the corrections of the master, whose work was then beyond correction.
Thus even the cold marble of the antique is made to glow with life, and if the book takes the form of a bio...graphical dictionary rather than a dissertation on Art, it is none the less valuable on that account. For what are " schools, " but men ? To bring us into the presence of the painters themselves is to make us ac- quainted with the schools. Many of us have some favourite picture dear to our memory, or a little special knowledge of some master we particularly reverence. But how small is the field of vision to most of us. We have seen a swallow, and lo ! we say it is Spring. But how many of us can tell a swallow from a linnet ?
