This 4-part Ave Maria of Josquin Des Prez was extremely popular in the sixteenth century, through its then “new” more “open” style (fewer melismas, parts set with just two voices). Even today, it is considered one of the most nearly perfect compositions of its era.

It was so popular during Josquin's life that an anonymous composer, probably working after Josquin's death, circulated a version with two new added voices (Ave Maria a 4 plus 2).

Ludwig Senfl also wrote a 6-part Ave Maria parody based on this piece; see https://vault2.secured-url.com/handlo/pdf/o-s/SDZA--As.pdf for sample (but it's not in the Handlo.com catalog).
