Hans Bohrdt apparently made a painting of the sinking. The German name of the painting was “Der letzte Mann” (the last man). According to the British eye-witness account, four German sailors held the flag up high and went down with the ship. HRS page 169. You find a picture of the account here MisterBee1966 (talk) 11:19, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
