He wears a cowboy hat, possibly a Stetson, and a belt with a large, square buckle. His shirt is embroidered with flowers. A dark sheepskin is under Cody's saddle. The horse's bridle is decorated with shells placed together to form a pattern of flowers. Wood chairs form rows in the viewing stands in the background.
