Lotten von Kræmer

She was the founder of the literary society Samfundet De Nio[1] and, alongside Martina Bergman-Österberg, the main financier of the National Association for Women's Suffrage.

She herself proved her talent in various artistic fields: writing during literary evenings, dancing during the balls and acting in amateur theater, such as when she played the part of Jane Eyre, in which she was instructed by the actress Elise Hwasser.

She moved to Stockholm, where she lived an increasingly spartan life over the years and eventually was regarded as a "tragic original."

[2][3] Lotten von Kræmer was interested in social reforms, among them women's rights, and in 1872 she founded the first scholarship fund for female students at Uppsala University.

She also financially supported the magazine Ord och Bild, the Fredrika Bremer Association, Handarbetets vänner and Östermalm's workhouse for poor children.
