What reading level is Windows : a book About Stained & Painted Glass book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The transept window in SS. Giovanni e Paolo at Venice does not come up to its reputation. It is in a miserable condition, and as to its authorship (whence its reputation), you have only to compare it with the S. Augustine picture, which hangs close by, to see that it is not by the same hand. One of the multitudinous Vivarini may very likely have had a hand in it, but certainly not Bartolomeo. His manner, even in his pictures, was more restrained than that. There are a number of fine windows in ...the nave of Milan Cathedral, two at least in which the composition of red and blue is a joy to see. Earlier Italian glass is of less importance ; the windows at Assisi, for example, are interesting c c 2 388 rather than satisfying. They show a distinctly Italian render- ing of Gothic, which is of course not quite Gothic. To the designer they indicate trials in design which might possibly with advantage be carried farther.
There is good sixteenth century glass in Spain. At Burgos, whether in the cathedral or in the Carthusian monastery, you would hardly know it was not French.
