Early Narrow-ware Looms in Period Artwork

As I started the survey of the various titles I have on hand, I realized that I should probably broaden my focus to various narrow-ware looms that I find.  So far, it seems to be in four categories:  a classic box loom shape, a high-castle tape-type loom, a simple rigid heddle arrangement on a floor stand, and upright narrow tapestry-type arrangements that seem to be for more elaborate tapes.  I decided that a collection of all of them might be of more use to everyone, so I'm including them all.
