Some of the best are the large museum bookstores (such as the Metropolitan
Museum of Art - the corner of 5th Avenue and 82nd).  The Strand  (down on 4th
Street and 828 Broadway) has a great art section, but because it carries used
books you'll need to spend time digging around the piles.  Try also Ursus at
981 Madison Avenue (it's on a top floor of a hotel, of which I can't remember
the name, but it's around 50th Street.  Also, Ther's Acanthus Books, at 48
West 22nd Street, #4, which specializes in antiques, Antiquarian Booksellers
International, at Place des Antiquares #48, 125 East 57th Street, Argosy
Bookstore at 116 East 59th Street, Hacker Art Books, at 54 West 57th Street,
Harmer Johnson Books at 38 East 64th Street specializes in archaeology,
Rizzoli at 31 West 57th has more textbooks, and Witterborn Art Books at 1018
Madison Avenue.

Hope this helps!
