Kay Nielsen might be my all-time favorite illustrator.  His illustrations are beautifully composed, and I love his sense of line and color.

This has always been one of my favorites. Look at that face! I agree with shutlow that illustration of this caliber seems so rare today. And yes, opmuh, illustrating a story would be the greatest thing ever!

John Bauer is another one of my favorite illustrators. I have his book In the Troll Wood, which I think is basically a collection of the stories he illustrated for this Swedish publication.

I would be remiss if I didn’t post one of Bauer’s troll illustrations. That’s really his specialty.

This is a Dulac illustration for the book The Dreamer of Dreams by Marie Queen of Roumania (1915). Chilling. A picture of the cover of this book can be found here, although I don’t think it’s an original 1915 edition.
