A postcard that shows off the great detail achievable in the collotype printing process. Made from a photography from by the photographer Fred Bremner of Lahore and Quetta, the reproduced image owes its ability to reproduce the detail of the embroidery and fabric, the sharp contrast of the white cuffs on the dancer’s wrists and the very folds of her garment. Even her nail polish is visible.
