Johannes Ephraim Jr.

Johannes Ephraim Jr. is a Realism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum.

This 19th-century oil painter left one confirmed work: the full-length Portrait of Pieter Hendrik van Gelder (1887). The sitter’s frock coat and the studio’s heavy drapes suggest a late Dutch portrait tradition focused on precision and calm dignity. The painting’s signature and date are visible in the lower left corner, a small but clear trail left by the artist.

See how Ephraim Jr. rendered the lace at the collar and the sheen on the brass-handled walking stick.
