Count Erik Brahe (executed)
Erik Brahe
The historical Erik Brahe (1722-1756), beheaded for his part in a court conspiracy; Malte raises and dismisses him to insist that the boy in the portrait, who 'died as a boy,' is someone else entirely.
Reading notes
- The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge §212 Was that not an Erik Brahe who was executed
The historical Count Erik Brahe (1722-1756), beheaded for a court conspiracy; Malte raises him only to set him aside — the boy in the portrait is a different Erik, one who 'died as a boy.'
