Heinrich C. Berann (1915–1999) was an Austrian painter and cartographer. He achieved world fame with his panoramic maps that combined modern cartography with classical painting. Towards the end of his life, he created four panoramic posters of national parks which were published by the U.S. National Park Service. This 1994 panorama shows Denali National Park and Preserve in central Alaska, with Denali, the highest mountain on the continent, and the glaciers on its southern flanks. Painting credit: Heinrich C. Berann

Heinrich C. Berann (1915–1999) was an Austrian painter and cartographer. He achieved world fame with his panoramic maps that combined modern cartography with classical painting. Towards the end of his life, he created panoramic posters of four national parks of the United States, produced for and published by the National Park Service. This panorama, painted by Berann in 1989, depicts Yosemite National Park in California, looking generally northeastward. In the center of the image is Yosemite Valley, surrounded by granite summits including El Capitan and Half Dome, as well as Yosemite Falls. The peaks of the Sierra Nevada are visible in the background. Painting credit: Heinrich C. Berann
