Object history | Text: 1516; Florence; Hoym, Charles Henry, Count (1694-1736) | |||
Notes | An important part of Hoym's bindings came from the Colbert and Du Fay collections. Boyet (La vie du Comte d'Hoym , I, p. 162) and Du Seuil were his binders. Boyet bound mostly of count Hoym's volumes until his death (1733). According to the payment bills, it was established the count gave work to three binders (Boyet, Girou, Padeloup) and one gilder (Bailly); see L. Gruel, Manuel, 1887, p. 110-111.
