* fritz von herzmanovsky-orlando (* april 30, 1877 as friedrich josef franz ritter von herzmanowsky in vienna, austria-hungary; † may 27, 1954 at rametz castle near merano, italy) was a austrian writer and illustrator. The world of fritz von herzmanovsky-orlando is a cabinet of curiosities, a scrapbook of the strange, a picture book of the bizarre. It is populated by figures, less by people – by specimens, figures, and freaks. What comes to his mind is absolutely unusual. What he describes is caricature.
