Johannes Frederik Hulk Sr. (9 January 1829 – 12 June 1911) was a Dutch painter, draftsman, photographer, and owner of a paint supplies store.
He was the youngest son of the merchant Hendrik Hulk and his English wife Mary Burroughs.
He gave painting lessons to his son Johannes Frederik "John" Hulk Jr., and to Bernard de Hoog, Bertha Müller, and Elias Stark.
Together with his partner, Pieter Vlaander, he ran a photographic studio called Rembrandt, also on the Rokin.
Hulk held exhibitions of his photographic work at the Paleis voon Volksvlijt ("Palace of Industry") in Amsterdam in 1865, and in the Prentenkabinet ("Print Room") at the University of Leiden.
