Today in Labor History February 21, 1919: Kurt Eisner, a socialist activist in the Bavarian revolution and president of the Republic of Councils, was assassinated by extremists in Munich. The Central Council of the Republic declared a General Strike and state of siege in response, leading to the Bavarian Soviet Republic in April 1919. The republic was run through workers’ councils. The reactionary Freikorps paramilitary, along with elements of the German Army, quashed the republic in May. Many of those involved in the overthrow of the Bavarian Soviet Republic went on to become members of the Nazi Party.

This is a picture of Kurt Eisner, seated, balding, with long gray beard and round, wire-rim glasses. the president of the Bavarian Socialist Republic. By Photo by Germaine Krull (1897-1985) - I believe this picture to be in public domain in the United States as the image dates back to before 1919. It is impossible that the photo was taken after that, because Eisner was assassinated on February 21, 1919. The image was obtained from https://www.dhm.de/fileadmin/medien/lemo/images/96003586.jpg.Corrected information:Photo by Germaine Krull (1897-1985)taken in late October/early November 1918 after Eisner was discharge from prison on October 14, 1918.The photo is not public domain in the country of origin and will not be public domain until 2056.The photo is assumed public domain in the U.S., evidence for that (publication) is however missing. Without this evidence the work must be assumed as unpublished in the U.S. and is protected also in the U.S. for the authors lifetime +70 years following the authors death., PD-US, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=27415073
