Paulus van Hillegaert (I) or Pauwels van Hillegaert (I) (1596–1640) was a Dutch painter and draughtsman, known mainly for his landscapes, military scenes and equestrian portraits. He may also have painted the staffage in the landscape paintings of the Flemish painter Alexander Keirincx who worked for some time in Amsterdam. His work is closely related to that of the Dutch painter Henri Ambrosius Pacx.
