Does anyone know of a font like the one used for the title of this book?

Any suggestions for fonts with a similar hand written 17th/18th century feel would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Batarde Coulee from Lineto is a nice 1700s script based on Fournier's hand. Mark van Bronkhorst's Chanson d'Amour may have been based on the same source. And in the same vein is Schooner Script from Brian Willson.

Fabulous! La Figura is just what I was looking for (thanks, David) and the other suggestions are equally lovely.
Thank you all so much for your help.
