Jean Grolier de Servières, viscount d'Aguisy (1479, Lyon - October 22nd 1565, Paris) was a famous bibliophile, whose library was dispersed in 1675. The bindings of the books being ornamented with geometric patterns, have given name to bindings in this style. They bore the inscription, Io. Grolieri et Amicorum (the property of Jean Grolier and his friends).
