In 2008, the Giorgio Cini Foundation received Cesare Grassetti’s collection of ancient books as a testamentary bequest. It is a set of 832 editions from the 15th and 16th centuries that reflect Grassetti’s interest for volumes printed between 1470 and 1530, particularly science books, rare publications and several devotional works. The collection’s unique character, summarized in the selection presented here and enriched by the indexes that are found in the appendix, paints an accurate portrait of the collector through his remarkable library.
