English term or phrase: facties

Following the Kos´ciusko Insurrection, the
tsarist authorities exercised repression in the
form of confiscation, and the difficult financial
position of the previously affluent classes of
society led to numerous auctions of works of
art. In the period 1818-25, the sale of
Aleksander Chodkiewicz’s collections, which
included graphic art, took place at the palace
on Miodowa Street in Warsaw. The value of the
collection is best illustrated by the number of
etchings sold – 322 by Callot, 11 by Lucas van
Leyden, 23 by Rembrandt, 200 by ‘Little
Masters,’ as well as Rembrandt prints in socalled
***facties***, albums of various sizes in
which prints are mounted by topic, author or
school.

Grazie Elena! Purtroppo non sono riuscito a risalire alla terminologia italiana. Penso che si userà qualcosa del tipo "album per argomento" o simile, perché il significato di "fazione" e simili non sembra essere adatto nel contesto.
