Chauncy Hall School and the First Congregational Church appear together in this Boston view, which the title dates to 1857. The school's name recalls Chauncy Street, which honors Charles Chauncy, an early president of Harvard College. The shelflist card links the print to L. Prang & Co., a Boston lithography firm associated with Louis Prang, but the card records no date, so the 1857 in the title should be checked against other sources.
