Sunbaker is a 1937 black-and-white photograph by Australian modernist photographer Max Dupain. It depicts the head and shoulders of a man lying on a beach, taken from a low angle.
This iconic photograph has been described as quintessentially Australian, an icon of the Australian way of life.
Max Dupain (1911-1992) photographed the head and shoulders of an English friend, Harold Salvage, lying on the sand at Culburra Beach on the south coast of New South Wales. But it was not until the 1970s that the photograph began to receive wide recognition. A print of the photo was purchased in 1976 by the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra and by the 1990s it had cemented its place as an iconic image of Australia.
Available as an archival quality reproduction in 7 standard metric sizes in the following formats: an unframed print; a framed print; a stretched canvas; a canvas floating frame. Frames are available in white, natural oak, dark oak and black sustainable timber.

Print arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Looks great on wall of our holiday house at Culburra the beach where the “ sunbaker was photographed. Thank you
Living by the beach in a house named the Anchorage we've gone for watery-seaside-beach themed art for the walls. Retro Print Merchants is our go-to place not just for art but also inspiration. We had just finished a reno on a very masculine bedroom and Max Dupain's 1937 photo was the perfect choice.
5 Star Easy to navigate on line , artwork better than what it looks on line Can’t help some delays with post not Retro Prints fault
This was the most successful Father’s Day present ever! He absolutely loved it. The picture looks better in real life than online. The natural timber frame is lovely and the print quality is spot on. With all the delivery delays I was so surprised when it arrived so quickly too. Will definitely be using Retro Prints again.
