A pictorial-style bookplate in black ink on white paper, with text and drawing in white on black. The image features an open book in the foreground, with a horse and dog leaping from the pages. A parrot, lizard, monkey, and small bird are in front of the book, which is surrounded by flowers. In the background is a setting or rising sun and a volcano. Inset text reads "Dit boek is van Coen Kayser," which translates from Dutch to "this book belongs to Coen Kayser."
