Cabinet card of cowboy Jim Veatch mounted on horseback, taken by O.T. Davis of Walsenburg, Colorado. Veatch poses in classic Western attire with a wide-brimmed hat, neckerchief, pistol in holster, and coiled rope hanging from the saddle. His steed, a sturdy dark horse with a white blaze, stands calmly on the open plains with a distant view of rustic outbuildings and low mountain ranges on the horizon, capturing the expansive atmosphere of the frontier.
The mount features an ornate scalloped edge and bears the photographer’s imprint at right, along with a period ink inscription identifying the sitter. A rare and evocative portrait of a working cowboy in the American West, offering both strong visual appeal and regional specificity.
