Dover's significance as a packet station is evident in the large docks visible in the picture, serving as an important transportation hub for both people and goods.

The white cliffs of Dover add an enchanting touch to this already mesmerizing landscape, symbolizing both strength and beauty. This print is not only a visual delight but also serves as a historical document capturing an era when transport by water played such a vital role in connecting nations.
