A view of the royal dockyard at Plymouth taken near Torr Point, on the Western Bank of the River Tamer during a visit by King George III. The print commemorates the royal visit and celebrates the growth of the dockyard as a testament to the increasing grandeur of the Royal Navy. The text below the image claims the dockyard's productivity to be superior to all other dockyards in the Kingdom and the world. A crowd gathers in the dock in the right foreground to witness the King. Men in rowboats fly royal ensigns and ships perform salutes in honor of the King.
