EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the essence of the iconic Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, a spectacle that enthralled audiences from 1846 to 1917. The poster prominently features two legendary figures of the American frontier: Annie Oakley and Johnnie Baker, known as the Cowboy Kid. Annie Oakley, renowned for her exceptional marksmanship skills, stands tall with her rifle in hand. Her profile exudes confidence and determination, showcasing her status as one of the greatest gunwomen of all time. Beside her stands Johnnie Baker, a young cowboy who embodies the spirit of adventure and ruggedness associated with the Old West. The scene is set within a rustic tent adorned with banners proudly proclaiming "Rough riders of the World". Colonel William Frederick Cody himself, better known as Buffalo Bill, organized this grand show that toured across America and Europe. This lithograph serves as an advertisement for their performance – an invitation to witness daring feats and thrilling displays. Intricately engraved details bring forth every nuance captured by this 19th-century American School artwork. From each fold in their clothing to every line etched on their faces, it transports viewers back in time to experience firsthand what life was like during those wild years. This print not only promotes entertainment but also encapsulates an era when cowboys roamed freely across vast landscapes. It immortalizes these fearless individuals who shaped America's cultural identity through their bravery and skill.
