Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the evolution of bookbinding in the mid-19th century when it transitioned from a purely protective craft to a fully-fledged artform. The author presents an exhaustive history of the period, exploring the influential figures, revolutionary techniques, and groundbreaking designs that shaped the field. Against the backdrop of France's growing fascination with book collecting, the author delves into the heated debates between traditionalists and innovators. On one side stood the 'venerants', who staunchly clung to traditional styles and techniques, while on the other were those eager to embrace new ideas and push the boundaries of the craft. At the heart of this transformation stood the legendary bookbinder Trautz, whose exceptional craftsmanship and innovative designs propelled bookbinding into a new era. The author meticulously analyzes Trautz's work, exploring his masterful use of mosaic, intricate tooling, and vibrant colors that set a new standard for the art form. This book not only provides a comprehensive history of bookbinding in the 19th century but also sheds light on the broader cultural and intellectual currents that influenced its development. The author argues that the rise of bookbinding as an art form mirrored the growing appreciation for the book as both a cultural artifact and a canvas for artistic expression.
