This photograph is held in the State Library of New South Wales collection as part of File 06: Korner’s (junk shop), July 1953. The image captures a junk shop interior, reflecting Dupain’s interest in documentary photography and urban life during the 1950s. After the Second World War, Dupain moved away from his earlier experimental approach toward a more documentary style, capturing the everyday life of Sydney and its suburbs.
