The Moleskine notebook is the heir and successor to the legendary notebook used by artists and thinkers over the past two centuries: among them Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway and Bruce Chatwin.

A simple black rectangle that held the sketches, notes, stories and ideas that would one day become famous paintings or the pages of beloved books.

In 1997, the company known today as Moleskine brought the legendary notebook back to life, choosing this literary name to revive an extraordinary tradition of creativity and self-expression.

Today Moleskine is celebrated in pop culture as a contemporary icon, an inviting blank space where your own words and sketches join you to an ever-evolving relay of creativity.
