SOCIO, NOBILE. Tractatus de temporibus, et modis, recte purgandi in morbis. Nobilis Socii Salodiensis medici. Venice: (Bartolomeo Cesano), 1550
“Ilse Schunke first called attention to this binder, whom she called the ‘Leermauresken-Meister’, a name I have translated as the ‘Arabesque Outline Tool Binder’. The shop was active in Venice in the 1560s” (Hobson and Culot, item 16). Hobson goes on to cite nine ducal commissions, four other manuscripts and five printed books bound by the same shop; Laura Nuvoloni has added another two works, extending the shop's activity to 1571, in "Commissioni dogali: Venetian bookbindings in the British Library" in 'For the love of binding', Studies in bookbinding history presented to Mirjam Foot, (London 2000), pp.81-109 (pp.92-93 and Fig. 16).
