"The Knight of the Holy Grail" is a painting by the American artist Frederick Judd Waugh (1861–1940), known for his marine landscapes and work as a camouflage artist during World War I. While Waugh's most celebrated works typically depict the sea, "The Knight of the Holy Grail" represents a foray into the realm of Arthurian legend and symbolist art, illustrating the enduring quest for the Holy Grail.

The painting portrays a knight, presumably one of the Knights of the Round Table, in a moment of contemplative solitude, suggesting a narrative steeped in the mysticism and chivalric romance associated with the Grail legends. The knight is often interpreted as either Sir Galahad or Sir Percival, characters who are most commonly linked to the Grail quest in Arthurian tales. Galahad, in particular, is known for his purity and is the only knight who ultimately achieves the Grail quest in many versions of the story.

Waugh's composition, color palette, and use of symbolism would have been influenced by the prevailing artistic movements of his time, including Pre-Raphaelitism and Symbolism, both of which often embraced medieval and mythological subjects. The painting's exact date of creation is not well-documented, which is reflective of the broader challenge in cataloging Waugh's complete body of work, as he was prolific and not all of his pieces were dated or recorded with precision.

"The Knight of the Holy Grail" is lesser-known compared to Waugh's marine paintings and has not been as widely studied or exhibited. Consequently, detailed information on the painting's provenance, critical reception, and current location may be limited. However, the work stands as an example of Waugh's versatility as an artist and his capacity to engage with the rich tapestry of literary and historical themes beyond his primary focus on seascapes.
