Three young children and a woman carrying a parasol walk with a man who wears a top hat toward the back of a tent in a camp for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show near Earl's Court in England. A large stuffed buffalo is in the grass in front of the tent. Several large flags blow in the wind in the background. Additional tents are set up in the right background, where numerous people walk.
