What reading level is The English Home, From Charles I. to George Iv; Its Architecture, Decoration And Garden Design book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But a close examina- tion of the work strengthens the supposition that the front was designed as a whole when the project was started in 1640; and that the pediments and cornices over the windows, to- gether with the carving, were inserted at the close of the century. The later mouldings are larger and bolder in scale than the earlier.
' \\'illis and Clarke's "Architectural History of the University of Cambridge," ii. 366.
SOME LATER JACOBEAN HOUSES 101 When it is re- membered that in 1 640 Joh...n Webb was drawing none but classic buildings, and that by 1 679 St Paul's C a t h c d r a 1 was already rising above the ground, and that it was designed on fully developed classic lines, the significance of the mixed taste in this building at Magda- lene College will be the more readily ap[)reciated. But it must be borne in mind that Webb and Sir Christopher Wren were members of a learned confra- ternity, while the unknown designer at Magdalene had evidently not had the same opportunities as they enjoyed for acquiring familiarity with classic detail.
