Count Carl August Ehrensvärd (5 May 1745 – 21 May 1800) was a Swedish naval officer, painter, author, and neo-classical architect.
Ehrensvärd was born in Stockholm, and died in Örebro. Though active as a naval officer during his entire life, he is mostly remembered for the burlesque caricatures of often famous people from his era with which he decorated his letters.[citation needed] Some of his writings were published by Svenska Vitterhetssamfundet.[1]
In 1790, he was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
