"Richard Henry Lee (1732–94)" is a historical painting by the American artist Alonzo Chappel, depicting the prominent American statesman Richard Henry Lee. Born in 1732, Lee was a key figure in the American Revolution, best known for his motion in the Second Continental Congress calling for the colonies' independence from Great Britain. His proposal led to the United States Declaration of Independence, of which he was a signatory. Alonzo Chappel (1828–1887) was an American painter known for his portraits and historical scenes related to the early history of the United States.

The painting itself is part of a series of works by Chappel that illustrate significant moments and individuals from American history. In this particular work, Chappel captures Lee in a moment of contemplation or oration, reflecting his role as an eloquent advocate for American independence. The artwork is executed in Chappel's characteristic style, which combines detailed realism with a romanticized portrayal of its subjects, aiming to evoke the spirit and patriotism of the nation's founding era.

As an artist, Chappel contributed to the mid-19th century's interest in national identity and historical narrative through his art. His works were widely disseminated as engravings in the popular press of the time, contributing to the collective memory of American history. "Richard Henry Lee (1732–94)" serves not only as a representation of the historical figure but also as an example of how art and nationalistic sentiment were intertwined in the period leading up to and following the American Civil War.

The painting is significant both as a work of art and as a cultural artifact, reflecting the values and interests of the United States during the 19th century. It is part of a larger body of Chappel's work that remains of interest to historians, art collectors, and the general public for its portrayal of key moments and figures in American history.
