Life
Life
Lehnert was born in Groß Aupa, Eastern Giant Mountains, northern Bohemia, Kingdom of Bohemia, Austria-Hungary (now Velká Úpa, a district of Pec pod Sněžkou (Petzer unter der Schneekoppe) in the Czech Republic). He first travelled to Tunis in 1904, and in 1904 he again visited with his friend, and subsequent business partner, Ernst Heinrich Landrock. The pair established a photographic studio in Tunis and worked closely for more than 20 years. They later established studios in successively, Munich, Leipzig and Cairo, publishing the works as by "Lehnert & Landrock". Lehnert spent the last part of his life at Redeyef, Gafza Oasis, Tunisia, where he died.
