Alvise Figa' Talamanca attributed the workshop thus; The Roman binding is from the workshop which preceded the 'Rospigliosi/Andreoli bindery'; it is by Baldassarre Soresini of the Soresini bindery, which comes before the Andreoli ( formerly known under that name in recognition of its main patron, Cardinal Giulio Rospigliosi, but subsequently identified by Josè Ruysschaert as being the workshop of Gregorio and Giovanni Andreoli. Active from around 1630, it was one of the busiest and most celebrated Roman shops of the seventeenth century. Its patrons included Alexander VII, who named Gregorio 'Vatican Binder for life', and several other popes, along with noble families such as the Medici and Borghese (lot 325 Bonhams London, Knightsbridge The Library of the late Hugh Selbourne, M.D., Part One 25 Mar 2015)).
