    article on the process of photochrom: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochrom "A litho stone is coated with a thin layer of purified bitumen dissolved in benzene. A reversed half-tone negative is then pressed against this light-sensitive coating and an exposure in daylight made (taking from 10–30 minutes in summer, to several hours in winter). The bitumen hardens and becomes resistant to normal solvents in proportion to the light. The coating is then washed in turpentine solutions, removing the unhardened bitumen. It is then retouched in the tonal scale of the chosen color to strengthen or soften the tones as required. Each tint needs a separate stone bearing the appropriate retouched image, and prints are usually produced by at least six, and more commonly from 10 to 15 tint stones.[4]"

    Should be Bodelwyddan. From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marble_Church,_Bodelwyddan "The church contains pillars made of Belgian Red marble, and the nave entrance is made from "Anglesey marble". It also contains elaborate woodwork..."

    That's presumably the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, just a couple of blocks from the White House.
  • rockcreek said:
    This was in the original New York Avenue Presbyterian Church (1313 New York Avenue, NW), which was razed in 1950 to make way for building their current building. The pew was moved into the new building.
  • The Library of Congress said:
