Anne and Fernand Renier were leading book collectors in the mid-part of the 20th century, taking the lead in showing an interest in children’s book and genre literature long before they became trends in book collecting. They amassed a collection of over 80,000 volumes. The bulk of their collection was donated to the V&A Museum in London in the 1970s, where it now forms the foundation of the V&A’s children’s literature hub.
