Lanc"The gate to the new world has been opened. My soul shall be the wind that enters the gate. When the King will be raised from the Abyss, my body, too, shall surely rise." -SMS Friedrich der Große
Depiction of the scuttling of the High Seas Fleet at Scapa Flow, the 21st of June 1919. The warships in the background are two Kaiser-class battleships, SMS Markgraf with the anchor chain wrapping itself around her keel and one light cruiser. The two Kansens sinking with FdG are Kaiser (white coat) and Bayern (the one right behind FdG)
The King obviously refers to Bismarck.
