That because 5e books don't have near-naked adventurers in the art, somehow you can't play Sword and Sorcery style campaigns? The art doesn't prevent you from using the content in the book however you want to use it. There is absolutely nothing in Rime of the Frostmaiden keeping you from acting like Conan and setting free the people that the townsfolk are going to sacrifice to Auril. I've only read like a dozen or so Conan books, but from what I've read, Rime of the Frostmaiden fits perfectly with a lot of his adventures. Tomb of Annihilation fits pretty well, too. A ton of the enemies are evil mages, the wilderness is brutal and always trying to kill you, you venture into ancient ruins to get treasure and fight monsters, the towns that you go to are ruled over by corrupt/awful leaders, you can pick up NPCs as sidekicks/followers, and you have to fight a ton of otherworldly monsters (demons, undead, aberrations, literal gods, etc). You can absolutely play a Conan-style adventure in Tomb of Annihilation and Rime of the Frostmaiden. The fact that the people in the artwork are fully clothed doesn't stop you from doing that.</blockquote>
