Notes | M M Foot has identified this binder as Claude Picques Macchi states; c.1573, Paris, bound by the Malenfant's binder (M. Foot, The Henry Davis Gift, I, Appendix I, p.165-167, p. 166, n. 10). Three similar examples are kept in the Bibliotheca Wittockiana, Bruxelles (P. Culot, La reliure en France, p. 133, n. 56). See One hundred and seventy-six historic and artistic book-bindings, p. 64 on Diodori Siculi bibliothecae historicae libri XVII, Lugduni, apud haer. Seb. Gryphii, 1559 too. | |||
