František Gellner
Died in 1914
František Gellner was born in 1881 in Mladá Boleslav, the son of a small Jewish tradesman, a socialist, whom he followed to the fairs. He studied engineering for two years in Vienna, then mining in Příbram, associated with anarchists and saw the police search his home. A draughtsman as much as a poet, he studied painting in Munich, Paris and Dresden, then in 1911 joined the Lidové noviny in Brno as a caricaturist and columnist. Mobilised in 1914 and sent to Galicia, he was reported missing in September: where and how he died is unknown.
