This appears to be a Deutschland Class Battleship, a PreDreadnought design. I can't determine which of the class it is. It's one of these listed below.

Deutschland
Hannover
Pommern
Schlesien
Schleswig-Holstein

Deutschland Class Pre-Dreadnought

I believe it is Schlesien.

She's definately a Deutschland class ship.  

However, probably not Schlesien.  Look at the funnel bands; 2 on 1st; 1 on 2nd.  The Schlesien picture (previous post) has 1 band on each, so it's not likely her.

I found an image showing Pommern with 2 dark bands on the first funnel, and 1 on the 2nd.  So it could be her.  She was sunk at Jutland during the night battle.
