Among the earliest postcards of British Baluchistan, whose capital Quetta was leased from the Khan of Kalat in the 19th century. Bremner was one of the earliest photographers in the cantonment, having come out in the 1890s from Scotland. He must have been proud of this stark composition where the tree captures the viewer's attention first.
