A scarce and historically significant original chart titled “Der Tag” – Diagram of the Surrender of the German Fleet, 21st November 1918, commemorating one of the defining events marking the end of the First World War.

This detailed lithographic plan illustrates the formation and positions of the German High Seas Fleet as it surrendered to the British Grand Fleet under Admiral Sir David Beatty prior to internment at Scapa Flow. The chart names individual warships and admirals, making it an exceptional piece of naval history. Presented in an attractive period wooden frame, the print displays age-related toning and foxing consistent with its age, while the frame shows areas of wear and loss to the finish. A rare and evocative collector’s item, ideal for military, maritime, or First World War collections, as well as a striking historical display piece.
