Max Dupain (1911-1992) Sunbaker 1937 silver gelatin photograph, 38.3cm x 43.7cm Art Gallery of New South Wales, 2013 Across a career spanning nearly 50 years, Max Dupain's "Sunbake r" remains one of his most recognised and revered photographs. In the 1930s, Dupain captured a holiday snapshot of his friend laying on the beach at Culburra. Dupain recounts the historic moment it all started as "a simple affair. We were camping down the south coast and one of my friends leapt out of the surf and slammed down onto the beach to have a sunbake ... We made the image and it's been around, I suppose, as a sort of icon of the Australian way of life.' Show more
