I believe the answer is: The Europeans admired Benjamin Franklin and they perceived him as a brilliant man and full of potential.

Benjamin Franklin was known to be one of the founding fathers for the new rising power in the world at that time. He also very famous for his inventions in Lighting rods to prevent building from getting hit by lightning, bifocals, and glass harmonica. These products were widely used among Europeans at that time.

The Europeans perceived Benjamin Franklin in the eighteenth century as brilliant man with much potential. The French admired him for his success and for being a great diplomat in his time. He was awarded in London for his efforts in bill taxing.
