Porträt des Henry Knox (1750-1806) is a 1792 oil by Charles Willson Peale, a Neoclassicism work, held at Philadelphia Museum of Art.
This portrait shows a man with white hair, wearing a yellow military jacket with gold epaulets and a white cravat. The background is dark, with a lighter area behind the man's head. The man's face is serious, and he looks directly at the viewer. His jacket has a high collar and buttons down the front, and he wears a blue ribbon with a medal around his neck. This painting is reminiscent of works by Charles Willson Peale.
Charles Willson Peale (April 15, 1741 – February 22, 1827) was an American painter, military officer, scientist, and naturalist.
