Poniatowski also wrote a "hot or not?" about himself at Catherine's request, but I know what you mean. :)
BTW, the fact that Manteuffel was tall might explain why he got along far better than Suhm (who was small) with FW despite being into the arts, big time....
So he did, you are right,and they all, envoys and Prussian nobles alike, agree on "hot"!
For that matter, adding the Nicolai and Büsching Glasow takes to my big Glasow post at rheinsberg has reminded me that everyone agrees that Glasow was a looker, too, with Kalckreuth and Lehndorff in particular - no matter how much they disagree on his character - emphasizing his beauty. Whereas Nicolai makes it sound as if Fritz just had a fatherly fondness for Glasow and wishing to educate him etc. (Look, Nicolai, I can buy this fatherly stuff for the actual Karlchen, Carel. But Glasow? No way.)

Envoys, Prussian nobles, famous French authors, and sons of merchants from Hamburg!
