Career

Count Kinsky received a fine education and had many interests, such as improving education in Bohemia.[2] He served Emperor Charles VI as an Imperial envoy in London between 1728 and 1736.[3] He came into the cabinet of his successor, Queen Maria Theresa, in 1741, and soon became the Queen's trusted adviser and friend.[4] Many feared him because of his temper. He was thought to be willful, but also stubborn and arrogant, which is why he wasn't very popular.[5]

He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London in 1731.[6]
