Pierre-Antoine Bolongaro-Crevenna (1736-1792) was a prominent tobacco merchant in Amsterdam, a member of the wealthy Bolongaro-Crevenna merchant family based in Frankfurt. Bolongaro amassed an impressive library, the catalogue of which he published in 1776 as Catalogue Raisonné de la Collection des Livres de M. Crevenna , in 6 volumes.
The catalogue of this auction, which took place at his home in 1789, comprises more than 8,000 lots, including more than 250 manuscripts and more than 1,500 incunabula, as well as a large number of editions by Adlino, Elzevir, Etienne and other renowned printers.
At the end of the last volume, there is a supplement with titles related to the history of the Jesuits. However, the general index volume is missing.
