Mattheus Terwesten (1670–1757) was a prominent Dutch painter known for his contributions to the Baroque period, particularly in the realm of decorative and historical painting. Born in The Hague, Terwesten was part of a family of artists; his brothers Augustinus and Elias were also painters. He initially trained under his brother Augustinus before furthering his studies in Rome, where he became influenced by the grandeur and dynamism of Italian Baroque art.

Upon returning to the Netherlands, Terwesten established himself as a versatile artist, adept in various genres including portraiture, mythological scenes, and religious compositions. His works are characterized by their dramatic use of light and shadow, intricate detailing, and vibrant color palette, which were hallmarks of the Baroque style. Terwesten's ability to blend the grandeur of Italian Baroque with Dutch realism made his works highly sought after.

In addition to his painting, Terwesten was also a respected teacher and played a significant role in the art community of his time. He was a founding member of the Confrerie Pictura, an artist's society in The Hague that aimed to promote the interests of painters and maintain high standards of artistic practice. His influence extended through his pupils, who carried on his techniques and stylistic approaches.

Terwesten's legacy is preserved in various collections and museums, where his works continue to be studied and admired for their technical proficiency and artistic merit. His contributions to the Baroque movement and his role in the Dutch art scene of the 18th century underscore his importance as a key figure in the history of European art.
