EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Surrender of the German Fleet; Arrival at Anchor, at the Mouth of the Forth, of the long line of seventy German warships) is a captivating lithograph from the "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The image documents a pivotal moment in world history, the surrender of the German High Seas Fleet during the First World War. The print depicts a striking scene at the Firth of Forth, Scotland, where the German fleet, flanked to the north and left by a line of British ships, four American battleships, and the French cruiser-battleship "Amiral-Aube," is anchored, surrendering to the Allied forces. In the background, another line of British ships is visible. The black-and-white image captures the essence of the victorious Allies, with the German fleet appearing defeated and subdued. The surrender of the German fleet on November 21, 1918, marked the end of naval warfare in the North Sea and the beginning of the post-war era. The print serves as a testament to the power and unity of the Allied forces, with the United States, Britain, and France working together to ensure peace on the high seas. The image is a powerful reminder of the historical significance of this moment and the importance of international cooperation in times of conflict. The print, from the collection of The Print Collector, is a valuable historical artifact, providing a unique insight into the visual record of the First World War. Its intricate details and composition make it an essential addition to any collection focused on the 20th century, naval warfare, or the history of the First World War.
