Count Eugen Reventlow (1798-1885) and Count Theodor Reventlow (1801-1873) were the children of Danish diplomat and noble Cay Friedrich Reventlow. Eugen was appointed Secretary to the Danish Legation in St. Petersburg in 1823. He remained there until his brother Theodor assumed the position in 1828. As Eleanor Middleton succumbed to illness in 1827, her diary entries likely refer to the elder Reventlow. The portrait in the Album however may be of either brother.
The bust-length portrait presents Count Reventlow facing partly left, eyes looking forward, against a background of grey clouds. The young man wears a blue-black coat with gold buttons, a beige waistcoat, and a white shirt with a black cravat.

HILDEBORG REVENTLOW
født d 20. marts 1835
gjenforenet den 6. juni 1854 med
hendes fader Greve Conrad Reventlow
og med hendes d. 17 april 1853
forudgangne eneste Søster Anny
efterladende sig sin sørgende Moder
Salige ere de rene af hjertet
thi de skulle see Gud
Reen af Hjertet var du elskelige Lotte
thi en Engels var din Vandring hernede
til en Engel fuldførte du den.
Kjærlighed varer evig
Efter disse dine sidste trøstende Ord til
Din moder svang din herlige efter Jesu
velsignelse stræbende Aand sig op til din
Gud og Frelser hjemme i Englenes Boliger
