C. Knight was a painter in Hobart in the early 1840s and is assumed to be also the photographer and photographic showman of the same name who advertised a 'lime light' show of photographs at Hobart Town in 1854. This was one of Tasmania's earliest public lantern-slide shows known to have used photographs.
