Exhibition: Fred Bremner

[Rob MacKillop]

Who was Fred Bremner? A 19th-century Scottish photographer, part of the British Imperial invasion of India. OK, his behaviour was not PC by today's standards, but he took some cracking photos. There is an exhibition of some of his Indian images at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, and it is well worth checking out. I wasn't allowed to take photographs, so here are a few quickies!

Thanks Rob. I didn't recognise the name but I do recognise some of the pictures. Thanks.

Indeed. People are still suffering in Bhopal. Terrible.
