Oliver Herford war ein britisch-amerikanischer Künstler, Illustrator und Autor, der als „Der amerikanische Oscar Wilde“ bezeichnet wurde. Er war berühmt für seine geistreichen und satirischen Werke, die oft das menschliche Verhalten mit dem von Tieren verglichen. Seine Texte und Illustrationen zeichneten sich durch scharfe Beobachtungsgabe und feinen Humor aus, der die Absurditäten des täglichen Lebens aufdeckte. Herfords einzigartige Fähigkeit, die Essenz der menschlichen Natur in humorvollen Anekdoten und Versen einzufangen, macht ihn zu einer zeitlosen Figur der Literaturszene.
