Description: This antique photograph, an original gelatin-silver print produced in Germany in 1920, captures the Moscow Air Squadron at Dzerzhinsky Air Field during a War Council led by Commissar Mikhail Frunze. The black and white image showcases a historical moment in working life, aviation, and conflicts during the early 20th century, highlighting the cultures and history of Prussia, Germany, the Soviet Union, and Russia. The landscape orientation and photojournalistic style add to its significance as a collectable piece depicting a pivotal time in industrial and wartime developments. Mikhail Vasilyevich Frunze (Russian: Михаил Васильевич Фрунзе; Romanian: Mihail Frunză; 2 February 1885 – 31 October 1925) was a Soviet revolutionary, politician, army officer and military theorist. Born to a Bessarabian father and a Russian mother in Russian Turkestan, Frunze attended the Saint Petersburg Polytechnical University and became an active member of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (RSDLP). Following the RSDLP ideological split, he sided with Vladimir Lenin's Bolshevik faction. He led the textile workers strike in Ivanovo during the 1905 Russian Revolution, for which he was later sentenced to death before being commuted to life-long hard labour in Siberia. He escaped ten years later and took active part in the 1917 February Revolution in Minsk and the October Revolution in Moscow.
