Sluijters Jr., Jan
Jan Sluijters Jr. was born on January 9, 1914, in Amsterdam and died in June 2005 in Hilversum. He was the son of Jan Sluijters Sr. (1881–1957) and the brother of Lous and Eliza Sluijters.
He studied at the Institute for Applied Arts Education in Amsterdam, the State Normal School for Applied Arts in Amsterdam, and the State Academy of Fine Arts, also in Amsterdam. He also studied under his father, Jan C.B. Sluijters Sr., and Hendrik Adriaan van der Wal. He later became a teacher himself, studying under Pieter Apol and Gé Terhorst.
As a painter he was active in many places in Europe (Netherlands: Amsterdam, Baambrugge, Loenersloot and 's-Graveland, France, Italy, Morocco and Spain).
Besides being a painter and draftsman, he was also active as a watercolorist. His subjects were very diverse: workers, interiors, landscapes, nudes, portraits, cityscapes, and figurative representations.
He also received the Willink van Collen Prize twice.
Sluijters was a member of the Sint Lucas Association in Amsterdam, of Arti et Amicitiae, also in Amsterdam, and of the Rembrandt Society: the Society for Art and Art Desires.
Mentioned in Scheen, Jacobs.

After the auction, you can choose from various shipping (PostNL), delivery (Swift or our own courier), and/or pickup options (depending on the size and fragility of the item). We'll pack carefully and use sufficient material (bubble wrap/MDF boards) to minimize any damage. For multiple purchases, we'll combine shipping whenever possible to keep costs low. Pickup is possible anytime up to one month after purchase! If you need more time, that's always negotiable.
Our artworks are often loose-leaf or in the wrong frame – a professional mat or new frame can truly complete your purchase. For sound advice, a wide selection, and an excellent price-quality ratio, we've been working with the framers at Frame4U for some time now. You can have Frame4U handle the framing and mat installation yourself, or we can take care of it for you. The cost doesn't matter; the choice is yours.
