An art book entitled 'Gerrit Dou 1613-1675'. A Dutch interior scene with a male musician seated in a chair holding a large stringed instrument. He is looking directly at the viewer. Light pours in from an open window on the left. The room contains books, a globe, a draped table and other objects

A book entitled 'Richard Diebenkorn: Ocean Park' by Jack Flam. The cover contains one of the artist's paintings from a series named after the neighborhood where he lived at the time. The abstract work is in soft yellows and transparent blues, greens and occasionally red.

A book about the art of Paul Pletka, simply titled 'Pletka' on the cover, in large letters on a black background. To the left is a painting by the artist representing a seated native American man. His unsmiling face is painted in red and white vertical stripes. This matches his trousers and appears to suggest an American flag. He wears an officer's black coat with red epaulets and a double row of brass buttons. His shoes are reminiscent of native American beaded ones, in multiple colors. In his left hand he holds a carved mace. His large right hand rests on his knee. He is looking straight ahead.

An Abrams art book with an arresting image by 20th century Austrian artist Ernst Fuchs. A strange and perhaps god-like and alien figure in shades of blue, bold, green and orange. A flame-like aura flanks this personage and appears to be reflected in its surface. An intense image. The artist's name appears above it in Art Nouveau-style gold letters.
