Cornelis Schut The old man (Antwerp, 13 May 1597 - Antwerp, 29 April 1655) was a Flemish painter, draftsman and engraver of the Baroque period. Schut adopted and maintained throughout his career the baroque style developed starting from 1625 by painters such as Pietro da Cortona and Guercino. Characteristics of this style are the strong sense of animation and the pathos expressed through the use of light and color. The style of Schut leads us back to the fact that he was a follower of Rubens, in fact in a document concerning the assets found in the Rubens house after the death of his first wife Isabella Brandt, the amount of 17 florins due to Cornelis Schut is recorded for works performed. From this it emerges a collaboration of Schut with Rubens. Orientation Bibliography on Cornelis Schut: G.Wilmers, Cornelis Schut (1597-1655), Flemish Painter of the High Baroque, Brepols 1996
