Orphée, tragedie
Orphée is a French tragédie en musique, a printed opera score by Jean-Baptiste Lully, published in Paris by Christophe Ballard in 1690 for singers and musicians. The first two pictures are dense black-on-cream ornamental friezes of scrolling foliage, masks and animals, useful as borders or decorative bands; the last two show printed musical staves with notes, slurs and an ornament marking 'la prestresse', suggesting rhythmic and typographic layout for score pages.
