Vasnetsov is back with his most famous Knight at the Crossroads (1882), Henry Singleton with the popular motif of Ariel on a Bat's Back (1819) (compare it to Fuseli's!), and the super charming The Dance of the Rats (~1690s) from Ferdinand van Kessel!

I also really love this cockatrice from one of Friedrich Bertuch many Kinderbücher (kid books!) in the 1800s. I don't know if he actually illustrated them himself, but Wikipedia accredits him this one.
