Everything about Gabriel Oxenstierna totally explained
Count
Gabriel Gustafsson Oxenstierna (
June 15 1587–
November 27 1640),
Swedish statesman, brother of
Axel Oxenstierna, was from
1612 to
1618 the chief adviser of Duke John, son of King
John III of Sweden, and
Gustavus Adolphus’s competitor for the Swedish throne. After the duke’s death he became, virtually, the locum-tenens of the Chancellor (with whom he was always on the most intimate terms) during Axel’s frequent absences from Sweden. He was also employed successfully on numerous diplomatic missions. He was most usually the intermediary between his brother and the
Riksdag of the Estates and
Privy Council. In
1634 he was created “Drots” or Lord High Steward. His special department,
Svea Hovrätt the supreme court of justice, was ever a model of efficiency, and he frequently acted as Chancellor and Lord High Treasurer as well.
