DescriptionA man dressed like a cowboy sits in a saddle on the back of a multi-colored horse in New Mexico. A wall of earth and rock is behind him. He wears a wide brimmed hat, button-down shirt, tie, holster around his waist with a pistol, and there is a lasso attached to the saddle. The ridder and horse are positioned to the side, revealing their profile. The ridder looks over his right shoulder, turning his head to the camera.
