Fokker Dr.I WWI Triplane Poster

Three wings, two guns, and the most famous paint job of the First World War.

Few aircraft are recognized as instantly as the Fokker Dr.I. The stubby German triplane reached the Western Front in 1917, and it is forever tied to Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron, who scored his final victories in a red Dr.I before he was shot down in April 1918.

Our print shows the triplane in bold red on a warm vintage cream field, with the details aviation buffs love labeled right on the art: "three wings," "two machine guns," and "rotary engine." As a 24×36 World War I poster or stretched canvas, it's WWI wall art and military history wall art with real character for the den, the study, the office or the hangar, and a gift for a history buff, dad, grandpa or model builder who knows exactly why this triplane still turns heads a century later.

What's on the print

• The plane: the Fokker Dr.I triplane in red, with period WWI German cross insignia
• The callouts: diagram-style pointers for "three wings," "two machine guns" and "rotary engine"
• The header: "FOKKER DR.I / GERMANY / 1917" in bold vintage type

Choose your format (24 × 36 in.)

• Poster, $49.99: heavyweight enhanced matte paper (189 g/m², 10.3 mil) with a low-glare finish that keeps the red wings and callouts easy to read under room lights. Ships unframed and drops into any standard 24×36 frame.
• Gallery canvas, $89.99: poly-cotton canvas hand-stretched over 1.25-inch solid wood bars, with mirrored edges so the full artwork stays on the front. Mounting brackets included: out of the box and onto the wall.

Quick answers

Does it come framed? The poster ships rolled and unframed, and fits any standard 24×36 frame. The canvas arrives stretched and ready to hang.

Is this the Red Baron's own plane? It's an original illustration of the Dr.I type in the red finish it's famous for, rather than a copy of one serial-numbered aircraft.

Will it arrive in time for a gift? Allow 2–5 business days for printing, plus tracked shipping time within the US. You'll get tracking as soon as it ships.
