About The Poster: This Italian engraving from the private collection of Giorgio Balbi depicts six figures of different ethnic groups circling the sentence "Tout homme à deux pays, sa patrie et la France" which means "Every man has two countries, his homeland and France".

About Ex Libris: An Ex Libris, also known as a bookplate, is a printed or decorative label pasted into a book, often on the front endpaper, to indicate ownership. Bookplates often bear a motif relating to the book's owner, such as a coat-of-arms, crest, badge, motto, or a design commissioned from an artist or designer. (Source: Wikipedia)
