Plot on an OSM map using Python

I want to plot a circle (and later possible a lot of circles) on a static openstreetmap map.
The library best suited seems staticmap from komoot: https://github.com/komoot/staticmap

This code plots a circle on a map of Stuttgart-Vaihingen:

from staticmap import StaticMap, CircleMarker
m = StaticMap(200, 200)

marker = CircleMarker((9.1065541, 48.7324794), '#0036FF', 5)
m.add_marker(marker)

image = m.render(zoom=15)
image.save('marker.png')

I want to generate quite some images on a large map so I added a cache to the tiles system in staticmap: https://github.com/mfa/staticmap/commit/4f922e913d6a3976c645e3b7551af441880763a5
