Dover Castle is a c.1747 landscape painting by the British artist Richard Wilson. It features a panoramic view of the port town of Dover in Kent with Dover Castle seen in the distance. It is likely the figure seated at an easel in the foreground is a self-portrait of the artist. The painting is also known as View of Dover. It was the first of his landscape paintings to be engraved. He dedicated the engraving to the influential politician the Duke of Dorset, the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports. A few years later Wilson left for his lengthy stay in Italy which fundamentally altered his style.
