You might want to look up Matplotlib.

This is extremely simple to do using matplotlib using the plot and bar methods:

http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.plot

http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.bar

The matplotlib gallery is usually a good place to start for examples of working code:

Pretty easy to do with pygooglechart -

You can basically follow the bar chart examples that ship with the software and then use the add_data_line method to make the lines on top of the bar chart

If you are rendering to a web browser, you might also consider jQuery and Flot using python-flot-utils. If you want static images, the other two answers are correct. Matplotlib is excellent.
