Summary	William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody poses on the back of a white horse, probably in England during the first European tour of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in 1887. A rifle, possibly a Winchester, lays across his lap. He holds onto the saddle horn with his left hand and rests his right hand on his hip. Cody wears a buckskin coat with short tassles and beads on the pockets. He also wears thigh boots and a wide-brimmed hat, probably a Stetson. Spurs are attached to his boots. A braided rope, possibly made of leather, hangs from the side of the saddle.
