Resumo
The Chapter Library of Toledo Cathedral holds a group of mudéjar bookbindings with central decorative motifs; they were produced in Italy, some of them in Naples, during the second half of the 15th century. This article shows that some of the bookbindings in the Zelada collection were the product of workshops that also worked for the kings of Naples. It studies the decorative structure of the covers and the spines as well as the individual decorative elements used, the construction and decoration of the headbands, the metallic and embroidered clasps, and identifies the heraldic emblems that appear in the first pages of the books.
