Nice topic! Ivan Bilibin is great, some classic norwegian illustrators of folk fairy tales, are:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodor_Kittelsen
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Werenskiold

(I'll let you google the images for yourselves if you are interested, and leave the hotlinking of images).

I love fantasy art in general and have a massive collection both in books and on my computer, one of my favourites for fairy tale art is the illustrator and fantasy artist Brian Froud (English). Froud also designed costumes for the films The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth.

I like the one of the goblin forging the moon. That's pretty cool
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

An idea to consider: Tedium, a Feature.

Some of Minna Sundberg's work/stories fit here, modern-ish but also myth-ish. Sometimes reminds me of HnH.
