This is a picture of Kurt Eisner. the president of the Bavarian Socialist Republic.

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 Without this evidence the work must be assumed as unpublished in the U.S. and is protected also in the U.S. for the authors lifetime +70 years following the authors death.
