Framed Print of Launch of the German frigate Kaiser at Poplar, 1874. Creator: Josiah Robert Wells
Launch of the German frigate Kaiser at Poplar, 1874. A...powerful ship of war, built by Mr. J. D. Samuda, M.P. of the firm of Samuda Brothers, for the Imperial Government of Germany...[She] was designed by Mr. E. J. Reed, late Chief Constructor for the Admiralty...The hull is protected by an armour belt... with an armour-plated battery on main deck fitted to contain eight 22-ton steel breech-loading guns. They are arranged to fire broadside; but the two foremost guns, one on each side, are also adapted for use as bow chasers, and capable of being trained to cross-fire before the vessel; the two after guns can be trained to fire within fifteen degrees of the line of keel...The Kaiser will be "ship" rigged, with a full amount of sail-power, so as to be able, as a sailing-vessel, to secure the greatest efficiency when under canvas without the aid of steam. The engines, manufactured by Messrs. J. Penn and Sons, of Greenwich, are a pair of horizontal, direct-acting trunk engines, of the collective nominal power of 1150 horses, but capable of exerting 8000 indicated horse-power, arranged to work expansively, and having surface condensers and superheaters. The speed will be fourteen knots an hour'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
