The word "ex libris" is a Latin locution that can be translated as "from among the books" (RAE, 2021). These brands allow us to know some aspects of their collectors, such as their training and preferences, as well as aspects of their personality and career. They are valuable elements for their historical value as well as for their status as artistic works.
