A high definition reproduction of the vintage "Germany 1936" ski poster by German artist Ludwig Hohlwein.

The 1936 Winter Olympics took place in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, during the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler. These Olympic Games, the fourth in history, were marked by intense use of propaganda by the Nazi regime to promote the image of Germany.

The 1936 Games saw the introduction of new alpine skiing events, thus expanding the range of Winter Olympic disciplines . Despite political tensions at the time, the event was an organizational success, with modern facilities and high-level competitions.

However, these Olympic Games are today widely associated with the Nazi regime's politicization of sport and its attempts at propaganda. The Nazi flag was used during the opening ceremony, and Nazi ideology was highlighted. This political dimension has often overshadowed the sporting achievements of athletes.

Despite these controversies, the 1936 Winter Olympics in Germany remain a key moment in Olympic history, highlighting the complexity of the relationship between sport and politics at that time.
