Picture of the day

An 1898 photochrom print of a cattle roundup in Cimarron, Colorado, US. Known as a muster in Australia and New Zealand, the North American roundup was an iconic image of the American Old West: the gathering of cattle in the open range, followed by them being driven vast distances from ranches to distant railheads over a period of several weeks.Photographer: William Henry Jackson;
