Carl Fredrik Scheffer

Carl Fredrik Scheffer (28 April 1715 – 27 August 1786) was a Swedish count, diplomat, privy counsellor, politician and writer. He was a Knight of the Royal Order of the Seraphim, and a Commander of the Order of the Polar Star.

Carl Fredrik Scheffer by Alexander Roslin.

Life

Scheffer's father Peter Scheffer was a governor. His mother was Helena Maria Ehrenstierna. He had a younger brother called Ulrik Scheffer. When he was sixteen, Carl began working in the royal office as an unpaid employee. Within a year he had begun to record the minutes of the councilors' meetings. He then left his job to travel and spent four years abroad. After returning, he became a member of the Hats party and won a seat in the Riksdag in 1738.[1]

Scheffer was elected a member of the Swedish Academy; he was one of the 13 people who were personally appointed by Gustav III when the Academy was created, but he died before he had been formally installed as a member.[2]

Together with his brother, he had their estate Stora Ek Manor modernised and rebuilt after French ideals.
