The Art of Bookbinding. 
 
 THE subject of Book-binding is one of great importance to the lovers 
 of books. 
 A peculiar interest is attached to the use of leather m binding, 
 for it exhibits one of the earliest forms of Printing. " It would not 
 be difficult," says M. Libri, "to prove that, m all probability, the impression 
 by the blind-tooling of figures on the skin employed for the covers of books 
 preceded every other impression of figures from engravings either on wood or 
 metal. The Italian word ' stampare,' employed long before the invention of 
 printing, and which was anciently used as applying to the action of pressing 
 on the skin, is one proof of what we have just asserted." 
 
 In our interest m the outer covering and its limitless adornment we must 
 not forget the basis of the absolute binding — which was first made of simple 
 wood. These boards, which were intended to protect the manuscript, often led 
 to its destruction, for, becoming worm-eaten, the grubs with which they were 
 infested in process of time invaded the pages, which became riddled with holes. 
 The boards at one time were made of pine- wood, and were so massive as to be 
 like doors which closed in upon the manuscript. 
 
 After a time, the habit of binding books m boards fell into gradual disuse, 
 a change which, however ad\'antage(3us to new books, was destructive of many 
 old and valuable ones, for the basis of the new bindings was pasteboard, and 
 to make it, sheets of paper were pasted together. To secure sufficient paper, the 
 pages of old books were used. Every volume which seemed to have served its 
 turn was destroyed in this way, and many valuable works must have dis- 
 appeared. In modern times, many very valuable manuscripts have been dis- 
 covered embedded in the pasteboard cover of a book. 
 
 The discovery of printing entirely changed the character of bookbinding. 
 The general use, for binding, of calf and morocco — the latter introduced by the 
 
 •^■52267 
 
\'cnetians from the East — seems to have followed closely upon the production 
 of t!ic works of Gutcftbcrg and Fust, in 1450. 
 
 The fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, when the love of art was universal, 
 were rich in booklnndm^ treasures. The greatest progress in the art was made 
 in Italy, where Da \'inci, Raphael, and Michelangelo were producing their great 
 works. Here, the habit of binding books with planks of wood, with the backs, 
 corners, and fastenings of leather, was soonest dismissed. 
 
 Ilal\-, liowever, claims especial notice as tiie earliest European home of 
 artistic binding with gold tooling. There is no doubt that this was of Eastern 
 origin. Some of the earliest Italian: ornamental bindings are evident imitations 
 of the covers of Persian and Arabian Manuscripts. 
 
 From Ital_\- the art of bookbinding passed into France, where it was brought, 
 during the sixteenth century, to perhaps its greatest perfection. The expedi- 
 tions of Charles VIII. and Louis XII. into Italy, had an important influence 
 upon French art: among oth(T things they were the means of imbuing French- 
 men with an appreciation for Italian l)indings. 
 
 The imitation of the Italian style of binding in France gave way to more 
 original attempts towards the end of Francis I.'s reign. Nearly all the bindings 
 of that monarch's time which have come down to us are reproductions of Italian 
 designs and ornamentation generally. In fact, the French school of binding 
 owed its rise entirely to the teachings of Italy, and it was only after a long 
 p)eriod of blind subservience that the pupils learned to surpass their teachers. 
 
 While Italy was remarkable for its gold tooling, binding in stamped leather 
 was brought to perfection in Germany — where the fine arts were so conspicuous 
 at the same period — and to some extent in Holland, Flanders and Belgium. 
 In the first instance, the designs stamped on the leather were of the simplest 
 description, and merely intended to conceal the bareness of the hide. They 
 consisted of a few ordinary straight hncs, perpendicular nr (haL;on;il, and some 
 simple ornaments. Afterwards, an elegant artistic taste came into play, and 
 many of the stamped calf, vellum, and pigskin covers became, thanks to the 
 designers of the blocks, mar\els of delicate treatment. ("onsiderabU^ \ariet\' 
 came to be displayed 111 the designs; ;in(l {portraits, and otlu-r illustrations ol 
 the contents of a book, wi're often stamped upon its co\er. 
 
 In ICngland, leather book-binding may be said, generally to lia\e come into 
 use with the in\ention ot i)rinting and to \\i\\c brought with it the art of stamp- 
 ing with gold aiul bJmd tools. The ciirlu-Nt o| tlu'se tools generally represent 
 
figures, such as Jesus Christ, St. Paul, the X'lrgiiV, coats 'of "anus, legends, and 
 monograms, according to the contents of the book. 
 
 The first Englishman who did work m bookbinding that could at all com- 
 pare with that produced abroad, was John Reynes. bookseller and binder to 
 Henry VII. and Henry VHI. He resided at the " George," m St. Paul's 
 Churchyard, and was an artist of some mark. His devices consisted of two 
 small shields, with his initials and monogram, and these he usually introduced 
 in a large design. Another binder of this period whose name has come down 
 to us is Garrett Godfrey who migrated to Cambridge and became the first book- 
 binder there. 
 
 In the twenty-fifth year of Henry Mil. '1533). an Act of Parliament was 
 passed, m the interest of English bookbinders, which was not repealed until the 
 twelfth of George II., by which it was enacted : 
 
 " That no persones, recyant or mhabytaunt within this Rcalme, after 
 the said feast of Christemas next comyng, shal bye to sell agayn any 
 prunted bokes brought frome any partes out of tlie Kynges obeysance, redy 
 bounden m bourds, lether, or perchement, uppon payne to lose and forfett, 
 for every boke bounde out of the seid Kynges obeysance, and brought into 
 this Realme and bought by any person or persons within the same to sell 
 agayne, contrary to this Act, vis. viiid." 
 
 In England and America at the present day, the greatest interest is taken 
 in the Art of Bookbinding and at no time were books bound with greater tech- 
 nical skill. The mechanical execution of the best class of work is almost perfect, 
 and it is a pleasure to examine critically the workmanship turned out from the 
 chief houses in London. — {From Cund all's " Bookbindings.")

 FAMOUS ENGLISH COLLECTORS. 
 
 Sir William Pickering (1516-1575). 
 
 Sir WirU(7)ii Pickering (15 16-1575), Courtier and Diplomatist, zvas educated 
 at Cambridge. In 1538 he zvas suggested as one of those " most mete to be 
 daily waiters on'' Henry YUI, and '' alloived in his housed On i April, 
 1543, with Henry Hoivard, Earl of Surrey, he zvas brought before the council 
 charged zvith eating -flesh in Lent and zvalking about the streets of London at 
 night " breaking the zvindoivs of the houses zvith stones shot from cross-bozvs." 
 
 At the accession of Edzvard 17 he zvas dubbed a knight of the carpet, and 
 on 20 Oct. follozving zvas elected M.P. for Warzvick. In February 15 50-1 he 
 zvas sent on a special embassy to the King of France, to ascertain the possibility 
 of making an alliance betzveen the tivo kingdoms. He zvas appointed reside/it 
 ambassador in France in April. 
 
 As ambassador, Pickering acquitted himself zvith credit; he gained the 
 favour of the French King, and his correspondence gives a valuable account of 
 continental politics. In May 1552 he begged to be recalled, and repeated the 
 request zvithout success in October and February \'^<^}. At length Wotton and 
 Sir Thomas Chaloner zvere appointed to assist him, and a month after Mary' s 
 accession he zvas summoned Jiome. 
 
 It zvas not till 1558 that he zvas again employed. In March of that year 
 he zvas directed to repair to Philip at Brussels and then to negotiate in Germany 
 for tJnee thousand men for the Queen' s service in defence of Calais. In October 
 he zvas at Dunkirk, " sick zvith the burning ague." He did not return till after 
 Elizabetlt's accession, in May 1559. From that time he lived quietly at Picker- 
 ing House, in the' parish of St. Andrezv Under shaft, London; but, being \' a 
 brave, zvise, comely English gentleman," zvas seriously thought of as a suitor 
 for Elizabeth's hand. In I'^^g'' the Earl of Armidel . . . zvas said to Juive 
 sold his lands and zvas ready to flee out of the realm zvith the money, because lie 
 could not abide in England if the Queen should marry Mr. Pickering, for they 
 zvere enemies." In 1569 he zvas appointed one of the lieutenants of London " to 
 put the kingdom in readiness to resist the rebels in the North," and in 1570 he 
 zvas on the special commission zvhich tried John Felton for treason. 
 
 He died unmarried on 4 ]uti. 1574-5, and zvas buried on the north side or 
 the chancel of Great St. Helen's Church, London, ivhere a handsome tomb, zvith 
 recumbent efflgy, zvas raised to Jns memory; his father's body zvas disinterred 
 and buried zvith him. By his zvill, dated 31 Dec, 1574, he bequeathed to Cecd 
 his papers, antiquities, globes, compasses, and horse called '' Bazvle Price." 
 He requested that his library should not be dispersed, but go to zvhoever married 
 his illegitimate daughter 'Hester. She subsequently married Sir Edzvard 
 Wotton, son of the ambassador and bibliophile {D.N .B.). 
 
 These volumes from his library passed into the C/iester field Family tJirough^ 
 the marriage of CatJmrine [eldest daughter and co-heiress of Thomas, Lord 
 Wotton) zvith Sir Henry Stanhope, and carry the Chesterfield Bookplate.

 *** Archbishop Lwd's 0\v\ Copy oi' this, the First Complete Edition. It is the most 
 FAJiors series of Argu.ments between the English Protestant Church \nd the Koman 
 Catholics. 
 
 " On 23 April. 1622, James sent for Laud, asking him to vse his influencd with th^e 
 Countess of Buckingham, who was attracted towards the Church of Rome by the 
 
 ARGUMENTS OF PeRCY, A JESUIT WHO WENT BY THE NAME OF FiSHER. By THE KiNG "s ORDERS 
 THERE HAD BEEN TWO CONFERENCES HELD IN HER PRESENC.-i BETWEEN FiSHER AND Dr. FrANCIS 
 "^^ HITE, AND ON 24 MaY, 1622, A THIRD CONFERENCE WAS HELD. IN WHICH LaUD TOOK THE 
 
 PLACE OF White. The subject then discussed was the infallibility of the church. 
 " Laud's arguments ox this occasion, together with THt.-=:iR subsequent enlargement in his 
 account of the controversy published in 1639, mark his ecclesiastical position in thh 
 line between Hooker and Chillingworth. 0>- the one hand b2 acknowledged the 
 church of Rome to be a true chtrch, on the ground that it ' received the Scriptures 
 
 AS A rule of faith, THOUGH BUT AS A PARTIAL AND IMPERFECT RULE, AND BOTH THE SACRA- 
 MENTS AS INSTRUMENTAL CAUSES AND SEALS OF GRACE.' He STROVE AGAINST THE POSITION 
 'that all points DEFINED BY THE CHURCH ARE FUNDAMENTAL,' ATTEMPTING AS FAR AS POS- 
 SIBLE TO LIMIT THE EXTENT OF ' SOUL-SAVINCi FAITH.' The FOUNDATIONS OF FAITH WERE 'THE 
 
 Scriptures and the creeds.' When doubts arose ' about the meaning of ths articles. 
 
 OR superstructures upon them— which AR.E DOCTRINES ABOUT THE FAITH. NOT THE FAITH 
 
 ITSELF, UNLESS WHEN THEY BE IMMIDIATE CONSEQUENCES THEN. BOTH IN AND OF Tff.-^SE, A 
 
 LAWFUL AND FREE GENERAL COUNCIL, DFTERMIXIXG ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES, IS THE BEST JUDGE 
 ON EARTH.' Laud, in short, wished TO NARROW THE SCOPE OF DOGMATISM, AND TO BRING 
 OPINIONS NOT NECESSARY TO SALVATION TO THE BAB OF PUBLIC DISCUSSION BY DULY AUTHORISED 
 EXPONENTS, INSTEAD OF TO THAT OF AN AUTHORITY CLAIMING INFALLIBILITY." D.N.B.

 Mouravit p. 7 mentions volumes from Maljiaison, of which a number were given to 
 Napoleon by his sister, but only eight op these works are known to-day, all in similar 
 bindings. This collection, the so-called '" collection inti.me," was taken by Napoleon to 
 Alexandria (on his campaign in Egypt and Syria) and brought back aft^r the expedition. 
 They were deposited in the Marseilles Library where they are still preserved in a glass 
 show case. (iuiLLOis (P. 479) notes that the volumes of the Library of La ^L^lmaison w'ERe 
 sold by auction in 1827, and bore the interlaced letters " P.B." on the back. Apparently 
 
 THESE volumes WERE RESTORED TO NaPOLF.ON BY CciiNT ThiBAUDEAU, WHO HAD SUCCEEDED IN

 FAMOUS FRENCH COLLECTORS. 
 
 Jean Crolier 1479-1565). 
 
 ]can Ciroiicr dc Scrvin, Vicomtc d'Aiguisy , the founder of the French 
 school of ornamental binding, and one of the most eninient book collectors of 
 any age, teas born at Lyons in 147Q. He 2vas descended from an Italian family, 
 and long residence in Italy matured his artistic inclinations. In especial, 
 he cultivated the acquaintance of the celebrated printers — the lamily ot 
 Aldus, of Budivus, Coclius, Rhodiginus, and Erasmus. Louis XII. sent hnii 
 to Milan as financial administrator and tear treasurer, and he remained there 
 under Francis I . as military commander. Thence he ivent a^ ambassador to 
 Rome, and upon his return to France in 1535, zcas one of the four Treasurers 
 of the government — an office ivJiich lie continued to hold during the successive 
 reigns of Francis I., Henry II., Francis II., and Charles IX. He died on the 
 22nd of October, 1^6^, aged eighty-six. His epitaph at Saint Germain des 
 Pres says less of fits honours than of Jiis lovt*. and encouragement of letters. 
 The principal occupation of his life was the collection of books and the large 
 number of contemporary works dedicated to him by both Italian and French 
 authors sJiow the value that ivas set upon Ins approval. 
 
 AlJiougJi he knezv that good Binders zvere to be had in France , (j roller went 
 to Italy to find better workjnen. His employment of Italian bookbinders was 
 more reasonable , as at that time the art had not attained to anything like per- 
 fection in France. TJte binders lie employed were men of his oivn selection; 
 they worked only under his most careful supervision , and his oivn fame has so 
 overshadozved theirs that even their names liave not come dozvn to us. We are 
 left in the same ignorance in regard to the artists who designed bindings for 
 Maioli. Grolier probably sometimes prepared Jiis oivn designs; he could use the 
 pencil freely, and it zvas easy for him to trace the fine lines zvhich meander in 
 gold over the rich binding of his books. He may also have ozved much to the 
 celebrated goldsmith anci engraver Estienne de Laulne, zvitli zvJiom he zvas on 
 terms of constant intercourse after his return to France. 
 
 In all books printed and bound under (/rolier's direction the finest zellnm 
 and the most carefully-prepared paper zvere employed; zvhilst for their exterior 
 decoration nothing appeared too valuable in the zvay of embellishment . He 
 provided his zvork people zvith the finest morocco from the Levant, or from 
 Africa, zvhich reached him through the rich mercliant Jehan Colombel, of 
 .Xvi^non. The most usual colour is dark brozvn, zvith a not over profuse gold 
 tooling, the border and interlaced geometrical pattern oi inlaid leather , and , in 
 the centre of the book, the title in e;old Roman ielters.

 Louis Henri, Comte de Lomenie (de Brienne), was an active, and intkijicent jian ; a sudden 
 AND inexplicabl:-: passion made hiji leave the wort.d for a monastery, which he only left 
 to find himself locked up in the Asyluai of Saint-Lazare. Although his contemporaries 
 and biographers considered him mad he certainly left very important memoirs, interest- 
 ing poetry, and must have had lucid moments to collect the library which cost him some 
 80.000 Francs.

 * ** Madame Uu Bakky (.Ieanne, Comtessi; Du Bakky), was the last favourite of Lot-is XV. 
 She collected a small Libkaky of books, all finely bound to her order in red morocco, 
 WITH HER Arms. She was condemned and executed by the Eevolutionists in 1793. 
 
 " La derniere favorite de Louis XV. avait iiiie Mbliotliecine composee de 1,068 volumes, 
 tousi ha.bilement relies en maroquin Touge. dores sur tranche, et frappes aux amies 
 cidessus. Ces voluiut-s sont fort recherclies des amateurs, soit a cause do la pro^ 
 venance, soit a cause de la. heaute et de I'elegaiice de la re<liure. 
 
 La Du Barry, (iuni(|ue fort bello. u'etait guere en etat de former, seule, une Biblio- 
 theque, elle cini ne puuvait ]uis ecrire un mnf ^ans faire une faute d'ortliog raphe : 
 son libraire s'en chargea. Un y remarqua. d'abord di bons ouvrages dTiistobre, 
 de litterature et meme de morale, puis ensuite de productions plus legeres, que son 
 fournisseur y fit entrer ^ans doute pour distvaire les instants du nionarque blase. 
 Louis XV., dit-on, parut enchante du gout litteraire de sa nouvellle maitresse, et 
 lorsque sa collection arriva au chateavi de Versailles, il s'ecria: "La marquise de 
 Pompadour avait plus de livres que la cointess?, mais ils n'etaient \>as si bien 
 relies, ni si bien choisis; au.-.>i nous la nommerons Inbliothecaire de Versailles."

 CHAINED BINDINGS. 
 
 " // ?s certainly distressing, as ivell as a suggestive sight, to see books in 
 chains. Distressing because a good book is like a strong man, and ivhen chained 
 is as shorn Samson among the Philistines . . . so that the mere sight of a 
 single survival of this rude practice is strongly suggestive not only of national 
 advance in education and literary enlightenment, but also of the poiver of the 
 printing press, through ivhose influence alone her offspring, as well as her 
 parents, the manuscript books, have been redeemed from their chains.''- — BLADES. 
 
 " The custom of fastening books to their shelves zvas common at an early 
 period throughout all Europe. When a book ivas given to a mediaeval library 
 It ivas necessary, in the first place, to buy a chain, and if the book ivas of especial 
 value, a pair of clasps : secondly, to employ a smith to put them on.'' 
 
 A great number of these mediaeval libraries Iiave unfortunately been dis- 
 persed, and others advancing with the times, have removed the chains from 
 their books, so that no7v very few examples are extant.

 ITALIAN BINDINGS. 
 
 (X\'.-X\'IIItli Centuries). 
 
 Ihily chjiiiis especial notice as tJic earliest European /loiiie of artistic binding 
 ivitJi gold tooling. There is no doubt that this ivas of Eastern origin. Some 
 cf the earliest Italian ornamental bindings are evident imitations of the covers 
 of Persian and Arabian manuscripts. Venice zvas for Italy the school of 
 binding, and to Venice — owing to her relations zvith the East — flocked many 
 Arab and Greek zvoricmen, ivho would naturally be attracted to the house of 
 Aldus. Many cf the Aldine bindings ivere simply imitations of the designs 
 that clothed the ivalls of some celebrated mosque. There zvere tzvo styles whicli 
 xvere more particularly copied, viz., the corded and dotted patterns, and those 
 in xvhich large surfaces of solid gold-ivork zvere spread over the side. Another 
 influence that zvas also probably at work in the formation of a highly orna-^ 
 mental style , zcas the old chased silver coverings, zvhich zvere evidently imitated 
 in some of the celebrated designs in leather. 
 
 " The taste for fine binding,'" says M . Libri , in the preface to the Catalogue 
 of the choicer portion of his library, 1859, " zvas spread through every class 
 of Italian society; and, during the zvhole of the sixteenth century , zve find books 
 gorgeously bound for pious congregations, for religious men or zvomen, for 
 poets and princes , for cardinals and for popes; and zve even see men celebrated 
 for their humility, as zvell as for their sterii and modest habits of life, like 
 St. Charles Borromeo and St. Pius V., admit as much refinement in the adorn- 
 ment of their books as the most dissolute and profligate of men, such as: that 
 detestable G . Orsino, zvlio strangled his zvifc zvith his ozvn hands.''
