The catalogue Dante. Fifty Books includes an extraordinary collection of manuscripts and first printed editions about Dante Alighieri. In order to give more value to this collection, the antiquarian bookshop Philobiblon wanted us to create a catalogue made with precious elements: cotton paper, letterpress printed text and hand binding half parchment.
