Knell was born in 1801 at Carisbrooke on the Isle of Wight. By 1825 had already exhibited his works at the Royal Academy. He soon built up a successful practice as a painter of maritime and particularly naval subjects, exhibiting regularly at the Royal Academy, British Institution and the Society of British Artists. Knell was twice commissioned by Queen Victoria for paintings. His picture 'The Arrival of Prince Albert', was bought by the prince himself and remains in the Royal Collection.
