Steam turbines fitted into the Dover packet boat Queen, 1904
Steam turbines fitted into the Dover packet boat Queen, 1904. The turbines were designed by the Anglo-Irish engineer Sir Charles Parsons (1854-1931). Parsons first demonstrated the steam turbine in his vessel the Turbinia in 1897. The invention revolutionised marine transport, making ships capable of much higher speeds than had previously been possible. From La Nature. (Paris, 1904)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable steam turbines fitted into the Dover packet boat Queen in 1904. Designed by the brilliant Anglo-Irish engineer Sir Charles Parsons, these turbines were a groundbreaking innovation that revolutionized marine transport during the early 20th century. Sir Charles Parsons first unveiled his revolutionary steam turbine in his vessel, the Turbinia, back in 1897. This invention marked a significant milestone in engineering and propelled ships to achieve unprecedented speeds that were previously unimaginable. The image captures an intimate glimpse of the engine room inside the Queen, highlighting the intricate machinery and advanced technology at play. The monochrome aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia, transporting us back to this era of scientific discovery and industrial progress. As we admire this engraving from La Nature magazine dated 1904, we cannot help but marvel at how Sir Charles Parsons' ingenuity forever transformed maritime transportation. His steam turbine not only enhanced ship propulsion but also paved the way for future advancements in science and engineering. This print serves as a testament to human innovation and reminds us of our ability to push boundaries through technological advancements. It is a tribute to Sir Charles Parsons' enduring legacy as one of Britain's most influential engineers whose contributions continue to shape our world today.
