What reading level is The Landscape Gardener Comprising the History And Principles of Tasteful Horitc book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These illuminated missals, the colouring of windows, the painting of tombs, furnish facts in proof of the primary principles of the theory of colours, now unknown, having been perfectly understood at a very early period. Within a few years, on removal of a floor and book-cases from the chapel of our Lady, in Exeter Cathedral, the concealed tomb of Simon de Apulia, nominated to that diocese in the reign of King John, was unexpectedly discovered. Even the mouldings of the nich containing the tomb..., and likewise superincumbent effigy, were tri-coloured, the exterior, the intermediate, and the interior, being derived from the three lead- ing classes of colours in the prismatic refraction, producing beautiful effect by striking contrast. To demonstrate the theory of colours, then, a circular card may be divided into seven com- partments, by lines drawn from the centre to the circumference, one compartment being painted red, the next orange, the third yellow, the fourth green, the fifth blue, the sixth pur- ple, the seventh violet.
