This is a 1686 Paris book of motets by Henry Du Mont, chaplain-music master to the French royal chapel, printed by Christophe Ballard as a basso continuo part for organ. Its pages are dense black-and-white music notation, each psalm setting opening with a large decorated initial letter whose ornate scrollwork and figures a designer could borrow for display capitals.
