A group of people is gathered in the shade under a teepee in a camp for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show at Ambrose Park in Brooklyn, New York. Nate Salsbury, owner and manager of Buffalo Bill's Wild West, lies on his side in the center midground. A small child sits near Salsbury. A young Native American child sits in the left foreground next to a man wearing a checked vest and pants. Several men, including some Native Americans, sit along the base of the teepee. Rachel Salsbury, Nate's wife, sits in the right background wearing a white dress and a hat. William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody huddles down next to a log teepee pole in the right background. He has a goatee and moustache.
