Caption: The Stairwell and North Hall
Additional Description: The grand staircase is the most important architectural element at the north end of the transverse hall. Its impact is stronger because it is unseen from the main entrance and must be discovered. The forty risers leading up to the second floor are of black Belgian marble with a balustrade of filigree-style wrought iron, topped by a dark brown wooden rail. Each of the first four steps is carved from solid Belgian marble with the remaining steps composed of two-inch thick marble treads and risers.
