Christian Ditlev Frederik, Count of Reventlow was a Danish statesman and reformer, the son of Privy Councillor Christian Ditlev Reventlow (1710–1775) by his first wife, baroness Johanne Sophie Frederikke von Bothmer. His influence on the life of the Danish people and, particularly, the conditions of the peasantry, made him very popular. He was the brother of Johan Ludvig Reventlow, who in the late 1700s served as his colleague; salonist Louise Stolberg, who was his intellectual partner and opponent through their extensive mail correspondence; and Commodore Conrad Georg Reventlow.
