Airs de cour avec la tablature de luth de Estienne Moulinié, chef de la musique de Monseigneur le Duc d'Orléans, frere unique du Roy. Quatriesme livre.

Moulinié, Etienne (1599-1676) · 1633 · Ballard, Pierre (1581?-1639) (Paris) · 6 pictures

A 1633 Paris printing of Étienne Moulinié's fourth book of courtly airs with lute tablature, published by Pierre Ballard for the household of the Duke of Orléans, brother of the King. The pictures are small black-and-white printer's ornaments: a central mask-and-scroll cartouche with flanking winged figures and swags, and three triangular panels of interlaced foliate scrollwork that a designer could adapt as borders, dividers or corner devices in early modern style.
