"Jan Cornelis Sylvius, Preacher" (b., Holl.266; H.111; Bb.33-h) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1633. This work is a striking example of Rembrandt's mastery in the medium of etching, showcasing his ability to capture the essence and character of his subjects with remarkable detail and emotional depth. The etching portrays Jan Cornelis Sylvius, a prominent preacher and relative of Rembrandt by marriage, who was known for his eloquence and piety.

In this etching, Rembrandt employs a combination of fine lines and rich, dark areas to create a highly detailed and textured image. Sylvius is depicted in a three-quarter view, wearing a traditional preacher's cap and a fur-trimmed cloak, which adds to the sense of his status and dignity. The expression on Sylvius's face is one of contemplation and seriousness, reflecting his role as a spiritual leader. Rembrandt's use of light and shadow in this work is particularly noteworthy, as it enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure and brings a lifelike quality to the portrait.

The etching is part of a series of portraits that Rembrandt created during the early 1630s, a period when he was gaining recognition for his innovative approach to portraiture. This work exemplifies Rembrandt's skill in capturing the personality and inner life of his subjects, a quality that has made his portraits enduringly popular and influential. The etching of Jan Cornelis Sylvius is held in high regard not only for its technical excellence but also for its insight into the character of a significant figure in Rembrandt's life and the broader context of 17th-century Dutch society.
