These are photos taken in my library.
The books are shifted every time something new that requires a lot of space appears, so probably I’ll have to update this post periodically.

Overall, there are over 6500 bibliophilic books, among which 6 incunabula.
The library contains all the major encyclopedias, natural histories, historical, political and literary registers, bibles and important religious works, science and historical writings, a lot of important writers like Shakespeare, Voltaire, Balzac, Goethe, Jules Verne, J.J. Rousseau, Scott Walter, Schiller, Moliere, Victor Hugo, Homer, and others.
The lower shelves aren’t visible, but I can assure you they are filled like the top ones.
As you can probably notice, many books are behind the visible ones – there are two, even three rows of books on almost every shelf, except the folio volumes that needed an entire shelf. If I were to place all of them on a single row, i would need a room at least twice as big.
