A cowgirl sits astride a horse in this glass negative, made by a photographer named Stimson in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, drawn from the Bain News Service, which supplied photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Cheyenne hosted Frontier Days, a rodeo and celebration begun in 1897, so the scene fits the ranch and riding culture that shaped the town. The record gives no date, and the title comes from caption data that has not been independently verified.
