Part of the Eastern Alps, the Dolomites are located in Northern Italy. Characterized by jagged peaks and vertical rock walls, the mountain range attracts hikers and skiers from around the world. An art student in Vienna, Lenhart did further study in Florence before settling in Merano, where he lived for the rest of his life. A painter, portraitist and illustrator, Lenhart also designed over seventy posters, many of which were for the Dolomites. Lenahrt 1.
