Created around 1796, this portrait captures the essence of a man who would go on to become one of America's most celebrated authors and lyricists.

His enduring legacy lies in his composition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" which later became the national anthem of the United States. This iconic piece is deeply intertwined with American history and represents the resilience and patriotism that define the nation. Peale's masterful use of color brings out every detail in this portrait, allowing us to glimpse into Key's world during the late 18th century.
