"Jan Cornelius Sylvius" is a portrait painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1633. This artwork captures the likeness of Johannes Sylvius (1564–1638), a preacher and an important figure in Rembrandt's early life. Sylvius was not only a prominent clergyman in Amsterdam but also served as a familial connection to Rembrandt, being the artist's future wife's uncle. The painting is notable for its detailed depiction of Sylvius's features, showcasing Rembrandt's skill in capturing the character and inner life of his subjects even at this relatively early stage of his career.

The portrait is executed with the dramatic lighting and psychological depth that are characteristic of Rembrandt's work. Sylvius is depicted in a traditional clerical garb, with a focus on his expressive face, which is illuminated against a darker background. This technique highlights the thoughtful expression of the sitter, suggesting his intellectual and spiritual depth. The painting is a testament to Rembrandt's mastery of portraiture, his ability to convey the personality and essence of his sitters, and his innovative use of lighting and shadow.

"Jan Cornelius Sylvius" is not only significant for its artistic merits but also offers insight into the social and religious context of the 17th-century Dutch Republic. It reflects the close relationships and networks among the intellectual and religious elites of Amsterdam, of which Rembrandt was a part. Today, the painting is appreciated for its historical value, providing a glimpse into the personal connections that influenced Rembrandt's life and work, as well as for its outstanding artistic qualities.
