Description |
Book binding by J. Schavye of Chirurgia è Graeco in Latinum conuersa (Paris, 1544). "Binding in blind-tooled leather[?] with raised bands". Notice of Smithsonian Libraries's Catalog. This book could be bound in human skin. It has a small gilt-lettered red leather panel mounted on front paste-down endpaper, stamped in Latin, Hic liber femineo corio convestitus est (“This book is bound in a woman’s skin.”) source An other book bound by the same binder (Josse Schavye) and also subsequently owned by the same collector (Belgian physician and bibliophile André Uytterhoeven (1799-1868)), had been bound by human skin, confirmed by peptide mass fingerprinting in 2015 : De humani corporis fabrica by Andreas Vesalius from Brown University. |
