‎In the late Middle Ages, in the time of Charles the Bold and Hans Memling, Bruges was a metropolis of books. One of the central figures in this international book trade was Colard Mansion (active from 1457 to 1484). Initially, in addition to being a valued translator, Mansion was primarily a highly sought-after copyist of luxury manuscripts, but when the art of printing made its entree in Europe in 1455, he saw his chance and became one of the first in the Low Countries to specialise in the new medium of printed books. In no time, he became one of the most important book entrepreneurs in Bruges and environs. In this book, manuscripts, illuminated incunabula and rare prints bring Mansion's innovative book business back to life. Nearly fifty specialists from around the world offer unique insights into Mansion's life, many aspects of which are shrouded in mystery. Among other things they describe the gradual transition from manuscript to print, explain workshop practices and publishers' strategies, and provide contextual information about late-medieval printmaking and the creation of an impressive oeuvre of literary editions in the vernacular. Mansion developed a brand that remained solid for centuries. This book holds the key to understanding why. // In de vijftiende eeuw is Brugge een kosmopolitische en dynamische stad, bekend om zijn boekenproductie. Luxeboeken nemen een centrale plaats in in de internationale handel en de Bourgondische cultuur. Midden in die boekenwereld staat Colard Mansion, producent van luxeboeken. Aanvankelijk is Mansion de man van fraaie manuscripten, maar al snel legt hij zich toe op het gloednieuwe medium van het gedrukte boek. Mansion drukt de meest schitterende wiegendrukken of incunabelen van zijn tijd, in een ongeziene typografie en heel bijzonder geillustreerd. Hij drukt vooral Franse teksten die nooit eerder werden uitgegeven. Die ongeziene schoonheid van Mansions gedrukte oeuvre staat centraal in de tentoonstelling en de begeleidende publicatie. De incunabelen uit de Openbare Bibliotheek Brugge en de Bibliotheque nationale de France worden aangevuld met exemplaren uit tal van bibliotheken van over de hele wereld. Nooit eerder werd zo een groot aantal wiegendrukken van Mansion samengebracht. Colard Mansions werk verbindt traditie en vernieuwing en omvat naast drukken, handschriften en miniaturen ook prenten. Tijdens de tentoonstelling maak je kennis met de atelierpraktijken van Colard Mansion en die van kopiisten, prentmakers en andere kunstenaars. ‎
