Johann Wilhelm Schütze (September 1807, Hamburg – 24 July 1878, Berlin) was a German painter and art professor.
From 1847 to 1848, he worked with Carl Eggers, creating frescoes designed by Karl Friedrich Schinkel, in the hallway at the Altes Museum.
He was especially successful as a painter of genre scenes, from the lives of the rural farmers; with a preference for naïve, youthful characters.
One of these prints, a wood-engraving by Richard Brend'amour (1831–1915), was published in the British newspaper Illustrated London News in 1882.
