LIBRARY
Acquisitions
  • You may find a list of library acquisitions from January & February 2021 here.
  • Listings of 2020's acquisitions can be found on our website.
  • This winter, we were privileged to enrich our holdings with a significant selection of books on 16th- and 17th-century silver- and goldsmithing from the library of a renowned Antwerp-based researcher in the field: Godelieve van Hemeldonck. We also received her personal research files on Antwerp silver- and goldsmiths in 1400-1800. Read more on our website.
All titles are available for consultation in our reading room.
