Livre de plain chant pour la commnauté de Madame le maire

1698 · Solesme : [s.n.] · 8 pictures

A devotional plainchant book printed in 1698 at Solesme, probably for a religious community, as its French title suggests. The engravings show Mary and Jesus in the manner of Baroque devotional prints, with halos, flowers, and inscriptions such as 'Iesus Amabilis' and 'Mater Amabilis'. A designer might draw on their oval frames, lily borders, and fine crosshatched line work for sacred or heritage graphics.
