Framed Print of Watt and his steam engine, 1760s
Watt and his steam engine (right). Scottish engineer and inventor James Watt (1736-1819) made numerous practical improvements to the steam engine of his day. By 1790, the superior Watt steam engine had completely replaced the older Newcomen engine. Watts version was developed in the 1760s at Glasgow University. His other inventions included the double-acting engine. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (1784). This lithograph, published in London in 1860, is by 19th-century engraver James Scott, after the 1855 oil painting by Scottish artist James Eckford Lauder (1811-1869).
