In forming the library on behalf of Grimaldi, Tolomei balanced modern literature with ancient, but provided the works of Greek authors in Latin translation, since Grimaldi did not know Greek.Niccolò Franzese (Niccolò Fery of Rheims), one of three binders working on behalf of Tolomei for Grimaldi (c.1524-c.1612), was a Frenchman active at Rome, whose work there played a role in popularising Parisian design. He was binding books for the Pope's private library by 1542, worked for the Vatican from 1549, and in 1556 was appointed by Pope Paul IV to the Vatican staff as its first staff binder, a post he held until his death in 1570-71 (see Hobson, pp. 76ff.).
