What reading level is London As An Art City book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It represents the Queen in her youth and was executed in the Princess's studio in Kensington Palace, where she does much good work. There are some interesting portraits to be seen in the Palace, which is well worth a visit.
Following Kensington High Street, we come to one of the most interesting and historical houses in London, Holland House. Built by John Thorpe for Sir Walter Cope in 1607, it is in the Tudor style, as were several other great houses built in the reign of James I. Henry Rich,
...first Earl of Holland, who married Sir John's only daughter and heiress, added the wings and arcades and caused the great Gilt Room to be decorated in honour of the marriage of Charles I. And Henrietta Maria of France.
The literary and political associations of Holland House are overwhelming. After the execution of the first Earl of Holland, the house was inherited by General Fairfax, who used to hold meetings here with Cromwell and Ireton. In 1665 it was restored to the family and in 1716 the widow of the third Earl of Holland, who had also succeeded to the title of Earl of Warwick, married the cele- brated Addison, who died here in 1719.
