During this period, the popularity, abundance and - most importantly - the unprecedented upsurge in the quality of illustrated works marked an astounding change in the way that publishers, artists and the general public came to view this hitherto insufficiently esteemed art form.

Autorenporträt
Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875). A fost un scriitor ¿i poet danez, celebru pentru basmele sale - printre cele mai cunoscute se numara "Craiasa zapezii", "Mica sirena", "Hainele noi ale împaratului", "Prin¿esa ¿i bobul de mazare", "Soldatelul de plumb", "Fata din soc", "Feti¿a cu chibrituri", "Florile micu¿ei Ida", "Ra¿u¿ca cea urâta", "Klaus cel mic ¿i Klaus cel mare", "Privighetoarea", "Lebedele salbatice", "Degetica" ¿i "Scaparatoarea". De mic copil Andersen a demonstrat o inteligen¿a ¿i o imagina¿ie sclipitoare, trasatura încurajata de parin¿i. El ¿i-a organizat un mic teatru de jucarie ¿i nu iesea de acasa cosând hainute pentru papu¿i. Citea toate piesele care-i cadeau în mâna; printre acestea erau cele ale lui Ludvig Holkberg ¿i William Shakespeare. Opera sa a fost tradusa în peste o suta de limbi ¿i continua sa fie publicata în milioane de exemplare în întreaga lume. Primul volum de pove¿ti a fost publicat în 1836 -37. Valoarea acestor pove¿ti nu a fost recunoscuta imediat, ¿i s-a vândut cu greu. În acela¿i timp Andersen se bucura de mult succes cu doua romane publicate în aceea¿i perioada. În 1841 face o calatorie în Turcia ¿i se întoarce acasa prin Dobrogea urmând cursul Dunarii. La Or¿ova ramâne un timp în carantina unde scrie Femeia Valaha pe care o publica ceva mai târziu în volumul Bazarul unui poet.
