She began studying bookbinding at the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1912 when she was only 12 with an emphasis on gilding. On graduation she worked with Pierre Legrain as did many of the great women binders becoming an independent binder in 1925. In 1927 she won the Prix Blumenthal and then became a teacher at her alma mater teaching many of the next generation of binders including probably Lucette Levy whose bindings are shown in this catalogue. De Leotard was adventurous and rather avant-garde in her choice of materials often mixing different skins and shades with perfect subtlety and her strong linear geometric style. Her graphic style was very crisp and her immaculate gilding and design skills were much appreciated by the bibliophiles of her time.Duncan and Bartha: Art nouveau and art deco bookbinding With original drawings by Jean Pavie bound into an Art Deco binding by Geneviève De Léotard Les Arts et le livre unknown
