| Description |
English: 'Caged in Scapa Flow': a study of the interned German High Seas Fleet, with additional details of ships above Inscribed by the artist, as title, lower right. These sketches are all of the German High Seas Fleet in Scapa Flow in 1918-19. The lower drawing in watercolour is a distant view of the fleet within the enclosing foreground boom. The top left sketch in pencil is the fore turret, bridge and funnel of a 'Kaiser'-class battleship. The top centre pencil sketch and the two on the right are of light cruisers of the 'Königsberg' and 'Cöln' classes. This drawing is a preparatory study for Wyllie's large oil painting of 'The German High Sea Fleet caged in Scapa Flow', now in the Ministry of Defence Art Collection. PAF0928 is also related to both, possibly being a replica version of the oil intended for reproduction, perhaps as an etching (though, if so, the Museum does not have one). |
