A 1658 Paris part-book of sacred music by Étienne Moulinié, a court musician to the Duke of Orléans, dedicated to the Duchess and containing motets, canticles and litanies for two to five voices with continuo. The pages show ornamented initial letters beside dense five-line staves of black square-headed notes with Latin text set underneath, and a designer might take the historiated capitals, with small figures inside decorated letterforms, as models for ornamental initials.
