This collection started out as the private library of Pietro Ottoboni(2 July 1667 – 29 February 1740), Cardinal Nephew to Pope Alexander VIII (Born Pietro Ottoboni as well). The Vatican Ottoboni collection was purchased from Pietro's heirs in 1748. In 1797 some 500 manuscripts from this collection were confiscated by French troops, though all but 36 were later returned. The Greek collection contains 475 signatures, but only 473 items, of these only the first 396 were part of the Ottoboni collection proper, the remainder added after its arrival at the Vatican. So far 380 have been digitized.
The collection is very strong in early biblical manuscripts, including two 11th C Minuscule bibles, Ott.gr.297 and Ott.gr.432 (which is dated to 1055). To the right is f.56r from Ott.gr.297, which is the start of the Gospel of Mark
