Galliot du Pré

Galliot du Pré (d. April 1560) was a Parisian bookseller and publisher.

In May 1514 the Royal Chancery of Louis XII granted du Pré the privilege of exclusive rights.

This was confirmed in 1515 by Francis I.

[1] Galliot du Pré's imprint device featured a ship with an angel blowing a trumpet, which issues the words "Vogue la Guallee" (or sometimes "la galee").

[2] The ship is a galiot, likely serving as a visual pun based on du Pré's first name.

Imprint used from 1512
