João Alves Rubião Junior is a 1898 oil by José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior, a Impressionism work, held at Pinacoteca de São Paulo.
The painting depicts a man with dark hair and a beard, dressed in a black suit with a white shirt and black bow tie. The background is a light-colored wall. The man's attire and the style of the painting suggest a formal portrait from the late 19th century. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the image.
