Biography

[edit]

Linnerhielm studied at the University of Lund and graduated in 1776. He pursued a career as a civil servant, holding different offices between 1776 and 1796.[1] During this time he was taught drawing, and came under the influence of Elias Martin and his brother Johan Fredrik Martin. In 1795 his wife, Helena Maria Ehrenstråhle, published a short collection of poems to which Linnerhielm made illustrations.[2] The illustrations are in the style of Salomon Gessner. It has been described as one of the best examples of Swedish book art during the 18th century.[3]

In 1794, he inherited his father's manorial estate, Ebbetorp manor, in Småland. Two years later he resigned from his official duties to concentrate his efforts on the running of the estate. In 1799-1800 he renovated the main house and created an English landscape garden on the grounds. Between 1797 and 1809 he published three volumes of travel accounts from Sweden, illustrated by himself (Bref under resor i Sverige (1797), Bref under nya resor i Sverige (1806) and Bref under senare resor i Sverige (1816)). These books are considered to be the first examples of purely recreational travel writing in Swedish. Linnerhielm has been called "the first Swedish tourist".[2][4]
