Since the end of the 16th century, travelling has been a vital part of the scions of the wealthiest families’ education, indeed it can even be said that it represents the most important source of unpredictable experiences and a privileged means of empirical understanding of the world.
Grand Tour is a project by Mayfair Rare Books and Manuscripts Ltd, a company founded in 2017 based on Paolo Rambaldi’s twenty years of experience in the antiquarian market. Specializing in antique books, incunables, and manuscripts, he has always held a personal preference for treatises on architecture and art books, which find their greatest expression and disclosure through the phenomenon of the Grand Tour.
