Autor

Miklós Bánffy was born Count Miklós Bánffy de Losoncz in Hungary in 1873. Over the course of his life he studied law, wrote plays, novels and stories, and became a groundbreaking set designer, an accomplished cartoonist, a politician and a diplomat. A leading figure in the Transylvanian Hungarian community, in 1943 he urged the Romanian government to cut ties with the German side in the Second World War; two years later, a retreating German army looted his estate. He stayed in Transylvania after it was invaded by the Soviet Red Army, and, emaciated and penniless, reunited with his family in Budapest in 1949. He died a year later.
