Christian Martin Tegner (Nov. 28, 1803 - 1881) was a Danish painter and lithographer who lived for many years in Trondheim, Norway. He ran a so-called “Cosmorama” in his apartment where one could view dramatic tableaus through little peep holes.

Tegner had studied at the Academy in Copenhagen under J.L. Lund, and was the first person to start a lithography workshop in Norway.

Cosmorama is the fourth album for the Lisbon based band and their second on Ghost Box following on from The Invisible World of Beautify Junkyards in 2018.
