After LttP it feels like we stopped seeing illustrations like these, where the mystery and danger of the world was the focus. The artwork became much more character-driven. Seems to line up with the series' shift in design and perhaps general trends. (Unsurprisingly, I like the original games best!)

Can't say how many times I flipped through the Zelda 1 manual to look at the illustrations. This one in particular is always somewhere in my mind. Many thanks to @historyofhyrule.com for collecting all these images! 🔖 www.flickr.com/photos/histo...
