Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In January 1933, as the Nazi Party assumed power in Germany, the German Republican flag, the Bundesflagge und Handelsflagge, with its black-red-gold tricolour was discarded as the national flag. On 12 March, the German government established two legal national flags, the black-white-red Imperial tricolour flag and the swastika flag of the Nazi Party.

This photograph marks this historic moment. It was taken on the morning of the 23 March, after the German Consul-General Dr Rudolf Asmis received instruction from the German government to hoist the Imperial flag in place of the old Republican flag. On 24 March, the 'Sydney Morning Herald' reported on the event, noting that the Republican flag had been taken down at sunset on 22 March and the Imperial flag was then hoisted 'in the presence of the entire ship's company' ['SMH', 24 March 1933, p 9].
This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Samuel J. Hood Studio collection. Sam Hood (1872-1953) was a Sydney photographer with a passion for ships. His 60-year career spanned the romantic age of sail and two world wars. The photos in the collection were taken mainly in Sydney and Newcastle during the first half of the 20th century.
The ANMM undertakes research and accepts public comments that enhance the information we hold about images in our collection. This record has been updated accordingly.
