Sunbaker
''Sunbaker'' is a 1937 black-and-white photograph by Australian modernist photographer Max Dupain, depicting the head and shoulders of a man lying on a beach, taken from a low angle. The iconic photograph has been described as "quintessentially Australian", a "sort of icon of the Australian way of life". and "arguably the most widely recognised of all Australian photographs."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nma.gov.au/collections-search/display?irn=71309 )〕
==Composition==
The photograph depicts the head and shoulders of a man lying flat on his stomach on the sand. His head, tilted to the left, is resting on one arm and his other arm is lying flat on the sand before him. The photograph is taken from a very low angle and head on, so nothing else of the subject can be seen. The sun appears to be almost directly overhead and casts much of the subject into deep shadow while reflecting off the beads of water on his arms and back. The subject takes up much of the upper half of the work, with the bottom half consisting of a bright, empty area of sand. The picture can be seen as "forming a single pyramidal form positioned against the horizon."〔
Dupain took the photograph in 1937 at Culburra Beach, a small town on the New South Wales South Coast. The man in the photograph was Harold Salvage (1905-1991), a British builder, who was part of a group of friends on a surfing trip.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/learn/schools-resources/art-start/image-bank/max-dupain/ )〕 The most familiar version of the photograph was not printed until a retrospective of Dupain's work in 1975.〔
