For more than half a century, the New York International
Antiquarian Book Fair has been the gathering place for book collectors and connoisseurs to view important acquisitions presented by the world’s most
renowned dealers in rare and collectible books and manuscripts.

This year is no exception, as Les Enluminures Gallery of
Paris and Chicago will show the exquisitely illustrated Book of Hours by
Guillaume II Le Roy of Lyon that owner Sandra Hindman
says is ‘one of the most unusual works of the genre.’ Written in Latin, this precious
manuscript on parchment, a highlight of the Fair, is a miniature bound in old
red velvet. 

‘Visitors to the fair, which takes place April 8 – 10 at the
Park Avenue Armory at 67th Street in New York, will be impressed with this
handsome and brightly colored book, created by a celebrated miniaturist of the
Royal circle. I always look forward to bringing interesting new
acquisitions to this perennial New York
book event, where I see many long time clients.’

The New York International Antiquarian Book Fair is
sanctioned by the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers, and
exhibitors must be members of the League of the Antiquarian Booksellers
Association of America.
