John Bauer (illustrator) (4 June 1882 – 20 November 1918) was a Swedish painter and illustrator. His work is concerned with landscape and mythology, but he also composed portraits. He is best known for his illustrations of early editions of Bland tomtar och troll (Among Gnomes and Trolls), an anthology of Swedish folklore and fairy tales.
Most of his works are watercolors or prints in monochrome or muted colours; he also produced oil paintings and frescos. His illustrations and paintings broadened the understanding and appreciation of Swedish folklore, fairy tales and landscape.

I love this! I can remember seeing his images when I was a child back in the 1970's in Norway.
Thanks! I remember them from my childhood too. We had a children's book with the images I could read it for hours and just watch the images and make up own stories. Thanks for trying the SDXL-version, I haven't been able to do it much myself yet. The troll images came out great, nice work.
@Benkebengt I will try it out some more later this week. I think I will try with more simple key-word based prompts, and use figures from old fairy tales and mythology.
