Store description

Galleria Gilibert antiquarian bookshop was opened in 1992 by the late Alfredo Gilibert, great bibliophile and collector throughout his life of all forms of art on paper. His son Massimo now owns and runs the bookshop and continues the family tradition of locating and providing books and prints to collectors around the world. Galleria Gilibert has been a member of L.I.L.A. since 1997. The bookshop occupies two floors in the magnificent gallery Galleria Subalpina in the heart of Turin, between two of the city's most important squares: Piazza Castello and Piazza Carlo Alberto. It is very close to the Biblioteca Reale, the famous Egyptian museum, and the Galleria Sabauda. …
