Cornelis Schut I (1597–1655) was a prominent Flemish Baroque painter, draughtsman, and printmaker, renowned for his dynamic compositions and dramatic use of light and shadow. Born in Antwerp, Schut was a contemporary of Peter Paul Rubens and was significantly influenced by the latter's grandiose style and vibrant color palette. Schut's artistic journey began under the tutelage of his uncle, the painter Cornelis Schut the Elder, and he later became a master in the Guild of Saint Luke in Antwerp in 1618.

Schut's oeuvre encompasses a wide range of subjects, including religious scenes, mythological narratives, and allegorical compositions. His works are characterized by their vigorous movement, emotional intensity, and intricate detailing, which reflect the Baroque era's emphasis on drama and grandeur. One of his most notable contributions to the art world is his involvement in the decoration of the Jesuit Church in Antwerp, where he collaborated with other eminent artists of his time.

In addition to his painting, Schut was also an accomplished printmaker. His engravings and etchings further demonstrate his skill in handling complex compositions and his ability to convey a sense of depth and texture. Schut's prints were widely disseminated and contributed to his reputation beyond the borders of Flanders.

Throughout his career, Schut traveled extensively, including a significant period in Italy, where he absorbed the influences of the Italian masters and the burgeoning Baroque movement. This Italian sojourn enriched his artistic vocabulary and reinforced his penchant for dramatic expression and dynamic forms.

Cornelis Schut I's legacy is preserved in numerous museums and collections worldwide, where his works continue to be admired for their technical mastery and expressive power. His contributions to the Baroque movement and his influence on subsequent generations of artists underscore his importance in the history of European art.
