Simon Luttichuys (1610–1661) was a Dutch Golden Age yet life painter.
Luttichuys was born in London.

He married an Englishwoman from Norfolk in Amsterdam in 1655, Anna van Peene uit ‘ Naerfick in Engelant’. He is known for various forms of still life painting and influenced the painter Willem Kalf.
