What reading level is The Stones of Venice .. 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The concavities cut in the facestones of 1. 2. 4. 5. 6. are all indicative of sculpture in effect like that of fig. XXVI. p. 251. VoL II., of which archivolt fig. 5., here, is the actual profile. The following are the references to the whole : 1. Rio-Foscari House. • 2. Terraced House, entrance door.
3. Small Porticos of St. Mark's, external arches.
4. Arch on the canal at Ponte St. Toma.
5. Arch of Corte del Remer.
6. Great outermost archivolt of central door, St. Mark's.
7. Inner archivolt of
... southern porch of St. Mark's Fa9ade.
8. Inner archivolt of central entrance, St. Mark's.
9. Fondaco de' Turchi, main arcade.
10. Byzantine restored house on Grand Canal, lower arcade.
11. Terraced House, upper arcade.
12. Inner archivolt of northern porch of fa9ade, St Mark's.
13. and 14. Transitional forms.
There is little to be noted respecting these forms, except that, in fig. 1., the two lower rolls, with the angular projections between, represent the fall of the mouldings of two proximate arches on the abacus of the bearing shaft; their two cornices meeting each other, and being gradually narrowed into the little angular intermediate piece, their sculptures being slurred into the contracted space, a curious proof of the earliness of the work.
