There's more to Max Dupain's Sunbaker than you might think.
Discover the vibrant allure of summer in the Inner Hebrides with this evocative print that captures the essence of the Isle of Raasay. Enveloped in the distinctive warmth of expressionism, the work exudes the season's vivacity through its bold use of colour and dynamic brushwork. Verdant hues of green stretch across the undulating landscape, swathes of lush grass interwoven with patches of bright yellow wildflowers, suggesting a haven untouched by time. The composition embraces the tranquil waters surrounding Raasay, where serene blues reflect the scattered clouds overhead, underlining the interplay between sky and sea. The horizon is adorned with the majestic silhouettes of distant Hebridean mountains, their forms rendered with a fluidity that heightens the dreamlike atmosphere of the scene. Nestled within this natural beauty, clusters of white cottages appear like pearls amidst the greenery, evoking the quaint charm of rural Scottish life. A scattering of trees, their canopies outlined with strokes of dark against light, adds texture and depth, creating a focal point that draws the eye and heart towards the island's living landscape. This print invites the viewer to a world apart, a reflection of Scotland's wild and enduring beauty during its most bountiful season. It's a stirring tribute to the spirit of place and a timeless addition to any collection celebrating the rich tapestry of Scottish landscapes.
