Reliures estampées à froid de la Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève, 12e - 18e siècles
This database is devoted to the description and the reproduction of blind-tooled bookbindings in the collections of the Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève.
"This database thus provides access to approximately 400 bindings, the oldest being 12th century Roman creations, and the most recent, mid-18th century German. Most are from the 15th to the second third of the 16th century. All were produced in western Europe; more than 60% are of French origin, 30% of German origin; the others are Flemish, Italian, English and Spanish.
"As far as possible, the descriptions of the bindings and their ornamentation are completed by the identification of their origin (country, region and town), and when possible, the bookbinder."
