Rudolph Striegler (1816–1876) was one of Denmark's early photographers, specialising in portrait photography. Trained as a picture-framer, Strieger opened Odense's first daguerreotype studio in 1846. With his experience of gold-plating, he was able to combine photography with ornate framing. Until 1857, he travelled widely around the country until he finally moved to Copenhagen.〔''Dansk Fotografihistorie,'' ed. Mette Sandbye. Gyldendal, Copenhagen. 2004. p. 33. ISBN 87-00-39586-2〕 In 1860, he introduced carte-de-visite photography to Denmark.〔 John Hannavy: ''Encyclopedia of nineteenth-century photography, Volume 1''. From (Google Books ) Retrieved 10 February 2010.〕 The idea of using a photograph instead of a printed visiting card came from France where it was patented by André Adolphe Eugène Disdéri in 1854 with a four-lensed camera which could take from eight to twelve photographs on the same glass negative. As the prints could be collected in albums, the technique became extremely popular.〔(Verden set på ny. From Det nationale Fofomuseum ). Retrieved 10 February 2010.〕 In 1861, while court photographer, he was awarded the Ingenio et Arti medal.〔(Medaljen Ingenio et arti. From Litteraturpriser.dk ). Retrieved 10 February 2010.〕 He was also one of the early photographers who took portraits of Hans Christian Andersen. In his diary entry for 22 October 1861, Andersen writes: "Stood for Siegler until 11.30 and had a few large and small pictures taken of me."〔(H.C.
