Tables of Descendants for Fyrste Heinrich Karl Wilhelm Carolath-Beuthen: Slægten Reventlow

Portrætter

Slægten Reventlow:

Eugen Reventlow(1798 - 1885)

Count Eugen Reventlow (1798-1885) and Count Theodor Reventlow (1801-1873) were the children of Danish diplomat and noble Cay Friedrich Reventlow. Eugen was appointed Secretary to the Danish Legation in St. Petersburg in 1823. He remained there until his brother Theodor assumed the position in 1828. As Eleanor Middleton succumbed to illness in 1827, her diary entries likely refer to the elder Reventlow. The portrait in the Album however may be of either brother. The bust-length portrait presents Count Reventlow facing partly left, eyes looking forward, against a background of grey clouds. The young man wears a blue-black coat with gold buttons, a beige waistcoat, and a white shirt with a black cravat.

Pederstrup

Pederstrup var i henved 200 år underlagt grevskabet Christianssæde og i perioden 1813-1827 hjem for greve Christian Ditlev Frederik Reventlow, der var en af hovedkræfterne bag landboreformernes gennemførelse.

Pederstrup fungerede som forpagtergård under grevskabet, indtil den senere statsminister greve Christian Ditlev Frederik Reventlow, som overtog grevskabet Christianssæde i 1775, gjorde Pederstrup til grevskabets hovedsæde, da han i 1813 trak sig tilbage fra sin embedskarriere i København for at slå sig ned med familien på Lolland.
