Gustaf Philip Creutz
Count Gustaf Philip Creutz (; 1 May 1731 in Anjala, Finland – 30 October 1785 in Stockholm), was a Swedish statesman, diplomat and poet. Biography Creutz was born in Finland and after concluding his studies at the Royal Academy of Turku he received a post in the Privy Council Chancery at Stockholm in 1751. Here he met Count Gustaf Fredrik Gyllenborg, with whom his name is indissolubly connected. They were closely allied with Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht, and their works were published in common; to their own generation they seemed equal in fame, but posterity has given the palm of genius to Creutz. His greatest work is contained in the 1762 volume, the idyll of ''Atis och Camilla''; the exquisite little pastoral entitled ''Daphne'' was published at the same time, and Gyllenborg was the first to proclaim the supremacy of his friend. In 1763, Creutz practically closed his poetical career; he went to Spain as ambassador, and after three years to Paris in the same capacity unti ...
