I have yet to see a DnD book, either by TSR or WOTC, that did not have some art I really liked and some I didn't care for at all.

Personally, I'm glad that the current roster of D&D artists don't assume that every PC is pretty much a 14th-century European in dress and appearance, but I understand a lot of people prefer that pseudomedieval look.
Two images are unseeable, but the other two are better than the magic mouth oddity, despite being a bit busy, vague, and overly adhering to a rigid single-point perspective. At least the artist is creative, if not terribly technically proficient.Glyfair said:Again, the art varies within the era.
Other classic AD&D art:

As long as I don't have to see 15th-century harness like that stodgy crap in the original "A Paladin in Hell", okay.Mouseferatu said:Since D&D can have multiple cultures, and even has multiple worlds, I see no reason why the artwork can't reflect both.
